Lend A Hand

“There is no exercise better for the heart than reaching down and lifting people up.”  I love this quote by John Holmes because those few words speak something to me, helping others when they can't even help themselves shows a lot of character in who we are as human beings. I want to  talk about the security of water and food because here in America we don't often or even have to worry about that! But what about the other countries - Yemen, Libya, Jordae etc. An article from Ryerson U. Toronto called “What’s Goin’ On Ace Family: How One Family Changed the Future of Vlogging Forever” shows us a problem that's happening somewhere that we should be alert about, don't look the other way lend a hand help to someone in need. This family change how YouTubers are considered as a joke and are for entertainment only, but here it talks about serious problems and how we should feel about this.

There are more places I can say but these countries have to worry about getting the best or even correct source of water, struggling on a day to day basis like its normal! I specifically want to talk about a small country in Africa that is called Swaziland, The people who live here either they have money to buy jugs of water or have to go outside and dig a hole somewhere, to hopefully find water; remind you this place don't have that many sources as we do in America. I'm pretty sure we all go on YouTube and watch funny videos maybe even see our favorite YouTubers but I really want to talk about an amazing family that tries their best to make the world better and help one another, Austin Mcbroom and Catherine Paiz aka Ace Family, held a charity event and raised about seventy five thousand dollars to help these people in need. This money was donated to the people of Swaziland so that they can have safe and clean water. They made a video about their experience and walked us through their villages kitchen, which was just rocks in a circle with a fire in the middle, this looks like a campfire not a kitchen they only have two types of food rice and beans, nothing else! When you look at us here we mostly argue about what we're going to eat or drink but think about this place. So yes, this is a huge problem that is happening that's going on in the world.

I believe that this is a problem because everyone deserves fresh/safe water and food, just imagine yourself going outside, digging a hole to get any ounce of water, how would you wash your clothes, dishes, how would you stay clean if there’s not enough water. This is an issue this is something we as human beings need in order to survive and having to work for it everyday is completely unfair.  I'm sharing this with you because I truly believe that everyone deserves fresh, clean and clear water, just think about it while we're taking hot showers there's someone across the world who doesn’t even know how that feels, this honestly shakes me to my core and makes me appreciate what I have in life.
