Just how lucky can one get to have three square meals in a day, two hot showers and a cozy bed to sleep in for the night? I would say, lucky. Very, very lucky.
People, especially children on the streets are not as lucky. They traipse the dangerous streets to find garbage worth eating. Get taken advantage of by greedy people, aka, syndicates. Beaten to near-death because they haven't labored for their parents for the day. That's the painful truth. Everyday, 8 out of 10 children all over the world gets deprived of a day's meal for not having reached their target amount of alms. This and more are the harsh realities of a street child's life.
I hope these photos help you remember how lucky you are to have a decent meal on the table and a roof on your head. =(
