Against Hunger

The problem with a blog like this resides in the fact that more often than not words remain as words, and there is no work beyond the effort of either reading and writing.
I usually do not like to involve politics in my blogging ideas, but the truth is that there is something awful going on in the world. Simply put, while some people eat, there are others who can't. What's even worse is that while there is some people who have the luxury of deciding what to eat and what not, what to keep and what to throw away, some others are craving to eat what the first group threw away.
 If you don't believe that the issue is as extreme as this, then probably you should know that over 1 billion people in the world are starving. Think about the times when you feel hungry, then think that was only a few hours, these people live with that feeling all their lives. When you are hungry, you are angry, when they are hungry, they are weak and tired, even feeding some of these people can be counterproductive since their bodies do not recognize nutrients any longer.
It is surprisingly unfair that other people have to go through this only because they were born in some poor country. Food is distributed quite unevenly: rich countries produce excess of foods, most of which is thrown away, while poor countries cannot afford the left overs.
Don't you think we are missing some fraternity here? The birds that fly from Scandinavia to Africa just see land, and people living there among other animals, no borders, races, countries, religions or GDP's. We see borders, with rich and poor, with African, and European, Islam, Christianism and Judaism. We distance ourselves from the suffering of others, we put ourselves in different compartments just because it is not convenient to feel it. Dare to feel it! Maybe that way something will change.
If you fancy donating some money to the World Food Programme of the UN, you would be doing already so much.  Donate to the World Food Programme! ;)
However, if you have no money, try playing the Free Rice Game, there for every right answer you will give 10 grains of rice. The questions are VERY easy and if you don't know, you will sure know the next answer. Donate Free Rice by playing :)
