WATOTO CHILDREN ROCKS!!
they are so inspiring, and to think that even without their biological parents, they can still smile more than probably majority of us here who are fortunate to possess a whole and complete family. i feel that though they are children, they are much stronger than all of us here, and are a more wholesome being. they are touring the world to raise funds for others, whilst we are mostly not grateful that we have an education and indulge in frivalous useless trinkets to fulfill our material desires, not thinking that with this extra cash, we can touch others' lives. this is not a reprimand, just a statement; it is a fact. we, though leading a perfect life, complain about everything: parents are too naggy, homework is too much, people criticising us too much. i guess we never realise that these are all affections that these children, living on this same planet as us, probably never expreienced until they joined the church. we do not treasure them, and want more.
i nearly cried when i watched the video. it was just so sad, seeing that they are children smaller than us who have to bear so much hardship. thank god for the church that was set up, but even with that assistance, there are still people out there who fall to aids and other diseases. these children too have ambitions like all of us; they want to be teachers, to bring light to others; pilots and the like. it was so heartbreaking to think that if they had not been found, these dreams might be impossible.
i maybe overly emotional or whatnot, but it was really that moving. and though i am a freethinker, i pray that God would look after them and all the rest of the people who suffer such cruel fates.
