A child dies in this world.
every 5 seconds…..can u imagine???
In Ethiopia kids die….of hunger
i heard that the country needs agriculture .
But it seems not possible..
we fly to the moon
we make golf courts in the desert of Egypt
Why cant we make Ethiopia a garden with food???
This is Egypt This is Ethiopia
Even kids in wealthy countries can go without food, but starvation anywhere, should not be allowed to happen in this day and age.
Yo Sweeti! I know, it is very sad, that any chidl anywhere should have 2 suffer starvation in this day & age, there must be an answer. Big Hugs, Luv PF XXX
I can’t even imagine that. The answer simply is, because, we don’t care and their is no eceonomic ‘interest’ in Ethiopia. 😦
i don’t know if you watch american idol or nnot . but they have a special they do every year . it’s called idol gives back. there’s striving kids all over the world. i don’t like seeing that either.
Hi Sweeti
It’s so very sad and tragic
Ethiopia is also torn apart by war as well as famine
I wonder if the world war care more about the plight of Ethiopia
if they had oil!
I sometimes wonder..would I even know the name…Iraq
if that country didn’t have oil!
Sweeti…I’m hoping that you have a good weekend!

Hi sweeti,It feels good to know that still there are people who care for others. Not only Ethiopia but most of the African countries are facing the same problem.There are a number of reasons for this. The main reason is the on going civil war in most of the African countries. Irony is Africa is very rich in its natural resources. But the governments are not efficient. Lets hope for the best.
Because, unlike you, there are not enough people who care. Be well, and keep raising your voice – eventually, someone hears.

One day without driving?
Why not take the PLEDGE to not drive October 4, 2008? Make Saturday, October 4, 2008 a day of rest. The goal is to get 1 million vehicles off the road on October 4, 2008 and prevent potentially 10,000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions in just one day! It’s easy at – http://www.adayofrest.org/pledge.html.

Once upon a time there was an island where all the feelings lived; Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge, and all the others……, including Love. One day it was announced to all of the feelings that the island was going to sink to the bottom of the ocean. So all the feelings prepared their boats to leave. Love was the only one that stayed. She wanted to preserve the island until the last possible moment. When the island was almost totally under, Love decided it was time to leave. She began looking for someone to ask for help. Just then Richness was passing by in a grand boat. Love asked, "Richness, Can I come with you on your boat?" Richness answered, "I’m sorry, but there is a lot of silver and gold on my boat and there would be no room for you." Then Love decided to ask Vanity for help who was passing in a beautiful vessel. Love cried out, "Vanity, help me please." I can’t help you", Vanity said, "You are all wet and will damage my beautiful boat." Next, Love saw Sadness passing by. Love said, "Sadness, please let me go with you." Sadness answered, "Love, I’m sorry, but, I just need to be alone now." Then, Love saw Happiness. Love cried out, "Happiness, please take me with you." But Happiness was so overjoyed that he didn’t hear Love calling to him. Love began to cry. Then, she heard a voice say, "Come Love, I will take you with me." It was an elder. Love felt so blessed and overjoyed that she forgot to ask the elder his name. When they arrived on land the elder went on his way. Love realized how much she owed the elder. Love then found Knowledge and asked, "Who was it that helped me?" "It was Time", Knowledge answered. "But why did Time help me when no one else would?", Love asked. Knowledge smiled and with deep wisdom and sincerity, answered, "Because only Time is capable of understanding how great Love is."

I m sorry to herad this true story Sweeti san! and more so many coutries had a bad times though even rich countries people had struggling to survives todays.
I read on the news paaper some an old people ate a dogs foods because cheper…
someway it’s not fair to comparing with poor countries to ours…..
At present time more required help they need to build up their countries ..
because it cause of natural disastares and they have a few percentage of repair for their damaged it’s alongway from back to normal Sweeti san,
You and I spent a little mind to helps those people …it almost in the dreams..
But you were doing a good jobs to helps the poor people at Eastern countries.
We needs more people likes you that CAREof othe people Sweeti san…
Thank you for sharing this post,
Have a great weekend,

Hi Sweeti,
Billions of dollars are being spent on an annual basis, on turning desert land into a rich man’s luxury resort. Billions of dollars more are being spent on space research. It beats me why there are trillions of people the world over who are still living with out a roof over their heads, clean water to drink, and a decent life. Maybe humanity is slowly coming to an end. Feelings have died, and this can be seen in the rise of crime, violence and terrorism.
Hope you have been doing well….haven’t heard from you for ages.
Love, Ruma.
Thanks for stopping by and the kind words….nice to have ya.
I have thought about this issue many times…i believe the answer is it isnt a ‘sexy’ problem and there is no money to be made from it, so who is going to invest all that time and money into a non sexy issue?. Its freakin’ criminal…….
Be well and enjoy your day.
Hello Dear Sweeti!
Thank you soooo much for your comments ! Its nice to know you care!
Well today I took some time to check how are my friends…how are you?
Did you went to Sri Lanka this year?
I see you continue a person concerned about the suffering in this world…
God bless you Marijh!
Today we had the first rain here..Oh God I miss Summer already!
Here is a present to you:http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd211/ernetex/madefeel.gifhttp://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd211/ernetex/beautiful_autumn_reflecting_leaf.gif"The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else believes in him and is willing to trust him with friendship."Lots of love from Isa
MJ, this is the reality we face every day and the news we hear every moment.
lots fo tragedies in this world not only result form Evirmormental or natural occurings, but also have deep roots with political mess. what happend in Ethiopia is just a example.
what can we do? many many anwers,
when and how can the solutione be implemented?
now body knows.
but if every one in this world is as kind as you, this world should be different as it is now.
have a wonderful weekend.
the contradicting facts!!
life doesnt seem to treat everyone with eqality…
remined of a saying, ‘the world has everything for evreyone’s need, but not for everyone’s greed!’
however…i feel….looking around in our respective countries
we come across, men, women, children…all in need of help of all sorts…
maybe doing a little to these will in tourn make a differnce…
nice day to you sweets
Yes, more ‘power’ 🙂
★ HOLA ★
AUTUMN is here…. enjoy it with someone you LOVE. =]

Hi M,how true. recently i read an article of the richest in india constructing a house almost worth of USD 20Mn.I was thinking for what and why can’t he help the poor children in India?Cha
yup, the way the world works really sucks…
Hi Sweeti,
I does seem like a simple and manageable problem that could be solved if the talent and energy of just a few were dedicated to it and everyone else cooperated. But everyone’s too busy writing comments and watching television. Thanks for writing about something significant.
Peace,
~Truly
woof, its my birthday today! i turn three 🙂
We can just wish that someone turns does something about it!-I
hey Sweeti, what’s been happeneing? any crap weather… any parites? (went to a sixteenth the other night and had a few too many :S felt slightly hungover after wards shhh…)
HOW HAVE YOU BEEN, DAMN SCHOOL STARTS TODAY, AGAIN 😦 WELL I GGET TO SEE ALL OF MY MATES SO THAT HAS TO BE A GOOD THING ABOUT GOING BACK I GUESS!
Interesting is the fact that we don’t need to make 20 million a year to be able to help those kids, if we all donate as much as we can (and most of us can) there would be a big difference already. But we always wait for somebody very wealthy to kick in and help, while doing nothing ourselves… most of the time at least.
couldn’t us ‘the world’ help more..what would it cost to each of us -if we could ge someone to build enough pipelines and give them enough water?
