If you’ve read my about page you may have noticed that I’m half Filipino - not that it’s important to understanding my reason for posting this, as human suffering is something that should affect us all in some way. I recently spent a couple weeks in the Philippines and as always I was greeted by the extreme hardships the children of poverty are forced to endure day after day. While the Philippines has many beautiful places, the video below gives you a glimpse of the indigence that ravages the third world. It’s in Tagalog with English subtitles and I must say may be potentially disturbing for some.
