Hunger, misery in the world


In the Pontifical Council Cor Unum, stated: "The crowd of starving people by children, women, elderly, immigrants, refugees and unemployed rises to us their cry of pain. We implore, hoping to be heard. "

Ernesto Sabato has written: "You can not postpone the decision to commit to the terrible crisis in the world. The foundation of hope emerge in the midst of that commitment. We enter the night and as sentries on guard for those who are alone and suffer the horror caused by this evil world system. We have a duty to resist and be complicit in life even in its filth and misery. A gesture of absolute trust in life and commitment to each other. So build a bridge achieve over the abyss.?

John Paul II in the Encyclical Letter Redemptor Hominis, 1979.n.16 stated: The extent of the phenomenon calls into question the structures and financial mechanisms, monetary, production and trade, supported by various political pressures, economic world: they are proving incapable of remedying the unjust social situations inherited from the past and face the urgent challenges and ethical demands. By submitting man to tensions created by himself, squandered at an accelerated pace material and energy resources, compromising the geophysical environment, these structures are continuously extend the areas of misery and anguish, frustration and bitterness ... ". "No progress on this difficult road of the indispensable transformation of the structures of economic life, if not done a true conversion of mind and heart. The task requires the strong commitment of men and free peoples, and solidarity ".

We are all brothers. color regardless of race, country where born, to us to lie to stay alive make way for lasting actions, encourage others to continue the work of shaking hands, help those who they must play in a role where poverty, hunger, foolishness, are some of your tests.

In the XXI century and still in many countries, continents, polular hunger, rages, where poverty remains enslaved millions of people to rage, condemned to death, but the sad thing is that children are suffering the most, children in need of a hand, people who give way to emotions nobles, impreganadas of love, cooperation, commitment.

The fact we do not live it no freed from that responsibility, spiritual growth is increasing as we are open to compassion, to help, give love to such, beyond the ambitions of power, ego, the superficial . We care about our potential to use knowledge of life that gives us in this step so short by this dimension, we must know our part as human we are, be sensible in the commitment of aid, to reach out to those in need, to ensure that as we stand, we are all happy, not be trapped by the illusory, artificial, on the contrary, deepen the sensitivity of the soul, providing food daily actions pure, authentic, transparent, imbued with love, justice, goodness, divine source itself that each brings to birth.

Fortunately there are beings pious open to compromise, their responsibility more, to work without ego interests and to such facts, expressed for example:

Lord, how can there be so many people who suffer so much, if all the things you did for everyone.

Lord, how can humans take advantage of his brother and lead to a situation of such extreme need.

Lord, how not to touch the hearts of the powerful

to be "pitied? their pain herman @ s and repent of so much suffering as they are causing.

Lord, I commend especially to children, innocent victims of power and greed of the humanos.Que soon have the world we want.

Let us dream and that they too can dream

with a more human and happier.

He has written that in the next ten years 300 million have no access to drinking water in the basins of the Mediterranean.

Every minute in the world disappear three farmers and 75% of global poverty is located in rural areas.

Six transnational corporations control the global pharmaceutical industry and agrochemical industries. Remaining in his hands two fundamental human rights: health and nutrition.

And most of the paradoxes ... Never before in the planet's history had produced so many different foods while witnessing the globalization of poverty and hunger.

The peak of food shortages, must be sought in the forty-two countries (LDCs), which are twenty-eight? Africa. "Some 780 million people in developing countries-20% of its population still lack access to enough food to meet basic daily needs in order to achieve nutritional well-being"

In isolation, each of these data do not seem alarming but if we add, moreover, if the chained and give them a progressive logic formula diagnosis is devastating. The land itself seems seriously wounded unable to feed its creatures.

Someone wrote with great certainty, in our hands is not to remain silent or look the other way. In our hands to speak up, rebel, be critical of our governments, lend a hand to the extent possible. Because it may seem little, what we do is to change things, even a little and together we can achieve a more just world, where human rights are respected, the rights of children and where anyone can live in freedom .

The organic search for the common good must be protected, promoted and, if applicable, reactivated as a necessary element of the fundamental motivations of the political and economic actors, in his thinking and in action, at all levels and in all countries .

The personal and institutional motivations of men are necessary for the proper functioning of society, starting families. But every man for himself, and together, men must accept this conversion is not to sacrifice the common good in the public interest or group strictly personal, however legitimate they may be.

Definitely, with this reality world where hunger is our main enemy, is considered valid, that the man is called to reform: What's at stake is vital for everyone. You must put your heart in motion toward unification, in love, of his own person and human community. This radical reform of man is deep and all that implies, for love is radical in its essence, does not undergo divisions, covers all the impulses of the person, their actions, their prayers, their material and their spiritual riches.
