POVERTY

POVERTY

Actually poverty is a situation that lives a lot of people, not only Costa Rican people; around the world poverty is a big threat. I already know about bad situations that life people, but I think the badness thing in life is didn’t had anything to eat. I met a woman who had only two children; she worked in a restaurant, she was very nice, she lives well. But one day she was a traffic accident victim. From that day her life experiment a big change, she didn’t had support, and she was alone and with two little children. She had a mutilation of leg. She hadn’t anything, nothing of money, nothing for eat. She need to change her home, she go to my neighborhood and decide to start a new life. She talks with all people that life in my quarter and everybody choose help that woman. She began cooking hamburgers, pizza, tacos, patty and many funk food. She goes house by house selling meals. After several months she can rent a better house, she can bring everything to her children. And now, she has a soda call "La esperanza". So this is a story of life, an example of effort and love. I think poverty is a synonym of vagrancy, I know nowadays opportunities are scarce but the simple fact of wanting to live and overcome is the inspiration to overcome poverty
