encounter with incredible children who live in exteme poverty



There is one of my high school teachers who once told me that life is an exam. I did not know what it meant until I met those kinds of people you see in image. In an exam, there are those who answer all questions and others who miss even one answer. And in life it's the same: - while some people want to replace their i phone 7 by i phone 8, want to have high fashion clothes others dream to have just a TV set and acloth to cover their body, - while some people get lambouginis, hamer, Ferrari, private jet trips, other people dream of having just a house where to spend the night - while some people party 7 days of the week, others die with famine. The difference between the exam and life is that failling or succeding are optional, there are those who opt for failure and others who opt for success. In life, this is not always the case, most of those who are poor do not choose this option. it has been imposed, there may be those people who have chosen to ruin their lives, yes I do not protest but this number is very minimal. and the worst is that some people get rich at the expense of others. Believe me, many who are poor have not opted for this option. I know what I am telling you because I myself belong to this category - I know what it is not to go to school for lack of financial means - I know what it is to lose your loved one's lack of medical care, - I know what it is to spend a night under the stars - I know what it is to be used for granted .myself was manipulated. people used my projects  and got millions of dollars while I was looking for just a scholarship.



And the big problem is that people living in extreme poverty do not denounce this manipulation they suffer for ,fear of losing their lives.  for me, If I have to lose my life so that those who come after me live in equity and equality then it is worth it.



Dr. Denis Mukwege chose to live in the suburbs of Panzi to defend the women who suffer the rapes in  DRC . That's to be a human. To be a human is not to have a heart that beats, animals also have a heart that beats. To be a human is not to have a nose, two ears, ... there are animals similar to human beings. TO BE A HUMAN IS TO BE DISTURBED BY OTHERS'S PROBLEMS.



There are exams where all students get at least the average .  that's what I want. Everyone can never be rich but everyone can at least have a minimum of subsistence.
