There are always others worse off than you.” – How does that starving child in Africa make our own problems any less serious?
“There are always others worse off than you” The city of San Diego, California had, at last count, 4,400 homeless in the city alone. You don’t need to look overseas to see hunger. Look at the elderly that choose between food or medicines. Look at the ones that are unemployed, with no more unemployment that have NO income (me). Starving children in Africa are the last thing I think of when I think of issues. I tend to focus on THIS country, and wish our government would, as well. As far as making your issues better or worse, it doesn’t. But it does put them in perspective.
