We have people who technically qualify as poor in our country walking around with cell phones, driving used cars that wouldn't even exist save for the people who buy them new, and have at least one nice TV in the home. A far stretch from the poor you will find in 3rd world countries. |
I went to a children's hospital the other day. There was a little girl crying over her pain after surgery. I went to her and told her to shut the fuck up because there is a little boy next door dying from aids. I told her to embrace the pain because there are people who have it worse. When she said that there are also people who have it much better than her, I just slapped her.
If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.
