Adversity

Discarded chicken scraps bought from a restaurant barely make a meal for Untouchables in Bihar, one of India's poorest states. These villagers belong to the Musahar, or rat-eaters, caste, its members known for hunting rodents. - William Albert Allard (Photographer) in NGM.

"Face your deficiencies and acknowledge them; but do not let them master you. Let them teach you patience, sweetness, insight... when we do the best we can, we never know what miracle is wrought in our life, or in the life of another."
- Helen Keller (1880 - 1968)

Like so many other aspects of life, i see it, but choose to do nothing; pretend it doesn't exist and then going about trying to create 'meaning' in a life that lacks substance. why? Fear? of what?
