How can I erase some if the things I have witnessed and should I? My heart hurts so badly and I can literally cry from just thinking about some of the things I see every day!!
The cobble stone work on the streets is done by some of the poorest and the whole family, including tiny babies and toddlers who can barely walk, all help out. A little boy, 5-7 years old had fallen and hurt himself. He was covered in cement and cried. Instead of loving care, his mother beat him. Repeatedly. Other, younger, children carried rocks that looked heavier than their tiny body weights. All they had was a tiny t-shirt, not even underwear.
I get sick to my stomach when I then hear and see "humble" people with noble life philosophies and principles they claim to live by and yet they cannot once set aside their need to be seen and heard, the need to be in focus, the need for attention, let alone help some of these “unwanted” without receiving glory for it. I am so tired of seeing and hearing the glory-hoggers, the fake, the imposters who only take but cannot give, unless they get some credit for it. You are like the cream on fresh milk; everybody wants it in the beginning, but quickly you get nauseating. All you are is fat, unhealthy to the body, clogging the arteries that supply the real good.
I left Delhi today with a heavy heart. This trip was fairly unproductive work wise, terribly expensive, and my heart is finally shredded. Who will help these little ones, tonight, tomorrow in the scorching heat?? I pray to my God for special angels over them and feel so helpless. What can I do?
