Comparing the Lives of Children

 

Every child deserves love, safety, food, education, and a warm home.

But we can see big differences in the lives of children when comparing.

Every mother loves her child and wants the best for him.

It’s just a matter of fate because all children deserve to enjoy their childhoods.

Yet as we compare, the children in the Syrian camps have nothing.

There is no joy in constant suffering.

Hunger and pain from the cold, wet rain and snow that flood the tents these children call “home”, are daily occurrences.

How lucky are the children who were not born into war zones.

We pray for all children to have safe and happy lives, away from war, away from tent camps, and away from cold and hunger.
