P. 55
to say something about love, yet my thoughts go astray,
to the dark side of murders, hunger and poverty.
Where has love for people, love for changes, joy
and happiness gone?
Do you feel well when on television you see a
tattered mother with a child in her arms? A skinny child
with flies around its head? Is it decent on our part?
Where is the love for our fellow citizens on this
planet? Is it all right? Would you like to help?
Giving money is not the only help. To help is to
love; to treat them equally, on the same scale next to you.
They should be given a chance to go side by side
with us, a chance to live like us. They should get
education and a chance to work and earn a decent living.
This is not going to affect us and lower our
standard of living. On the contrary, we are going to gain
from it. The fact that they will be earning for themselves
means that they will have money to satisfy their
increasing needs. When the small child grows up, he will
dream about living in the West, to be an immigrant, to
escape those poor living conditions, to be happy. If he
fails, he will become a terrorist or something like that.
