Street situation in Venezuela | Personal experience.

in history •  7 years ago 

Sitting on a bench in a busy street watching, different people pass, but there is something in which I pay attention more than anything else.
A boy about 8 years old rummaging through the garbage looking for that place, right at that very moment I turned to the other side of the street and there were two smaller children and a man also rummaging through the garbage. At that precise moment I can not get my phone because of the great insecurity that exists in my country. This was something that was stored in my head and that is not intended to think that children who can have it have food to eat in the trash.
I could not go to my house like friends. I went to a bakery very close to the place where they were and bought with stuffing and eyes, they were a little scared because they did not know what reaction they were going to have, but they wanted to have seen that moment, their little faces radiate joy and gratitude, That moment for me was satisfactory.

I would love to see them as children other than these, they have to do these things every day to be able to take a small bite. In Venezuela this experience was something devastating that took me to the time I remember and I still see the same thing day after day.
After getting into my car I was able to take photos with great care in several people in a situation where all their resources and eating of garbage.

He is another man in whom I found myself back home, a man on crutches and with an illness that can be seen on the street and at a traffic light, instead of being hospitalized, treated, treated, and, food, healthily.

How much do Venezuelans have to put up with?
I am strong, but I am filled with courage, nostalgia and helplessness in the face of deterioration in Venezuela, people who are so tired that they are going hungry, asking children, young people and seniors in the streets, to delinquency and no one else to the chaotic and cold reality that we are living.

This phrase that inspires me today.
The philosopher Claude Adrien Helvetius said: "It is the men who like violence, it seems a right"
