Metaphorical speaking, sleeping is when your competitors got the deal while you were asleep.
The truth is, even speaking in metaphors someone really past away last night of hunger and malnutrition in Africa, India, Asia and many other places on our planet. Literary thousand of people are already donating something towards the problem, and it does look like that its only one big black hole, and that’s most probably why Africa is called “Dark Africa”.
Facts are that most of these funds never reach the end destination, it vanish long before it reach the Welfare and health workers who has a "calling" to help others. Another revelation that comes past me is that we are happy about the situation, after all it's not our fault that Africa is corrupted or the leaders and administrators are corrupt.
That is also far from the truth. If you receive $1million Dollars to built a 24 million dam, the most likely is that you not going to start and while trying to figure out how to accomplish this daunting task, the funds are used for your own living expenses.
This means two things, the volume is too small and the sequence is too long. This is exactly the problems we face when trying to solve poverty and malnutrition. People starving are far less than 50% of the global population. Too little people see this as part of their responsibility and when they do the sequence of donating help or funds are too long.
While you were sleeping last night someone died of hunger and will happen every night until the rest of us wake up and realize that it is our responsibility, every one of us. I know many people that say, they are self struggling to makes ends meet. This might be so, but who ask you to donate your entire existence.
If you can only afford 0.10 cents a month, why do you keep it, why did your 10cents not form the last of the first 1 billion, because it look like it’s not going to make a difference at all. The 10 cents that you kept all this time, killed someone last night.
At the world in one place you have the opportunity to form a group, call it the 10 cent club if you like, and gather all your social friends, living in the same conditions and collectively your group might save some life’s. The rewarding experience will leave a deeper impression on your own integrity than anything you ever has done or accomplished before, and that on its own might change your situation from a 10 cent group member to a Wealthy person.
Please do not being caught asleep, other lives depend on that. It is your responsibility to, you know.
