“We cannot for a moment forget the fact of around 21.000 children dying every day.”
Can we not? I can…. unfortunately I forget most of the time.
While I even had the chance to hold and feed some of these children.
Wondering how may of them didn’t make it till today.

How can I forget? What if it was my own child?
What if I was the mother who wouldn’t be able to feed my child?
What if I knew my little one wouldn’t make it to the next day?
What a difference could someone make with money, food and love…

I am that somebody. I have enough. I have money, food and love.
I have more than enough. I think I even have too much.
But then still. Why won’t the next 21.000 make it till tomorrow?

Maybe because I’m too busy decorating my new home.
I’m spending hours in the shopping mall, finding stuff to put in my home.
Or because I’m too busy wondering what to wear with Christmas.
Because I’m trying to live according to that standard this side of the world is putting up.
Because…….

What will we do?
Will we let them die away.
And as they fade from memory, their lives remain the same.
