How I pray that in our world we can learn to emulate a true family. Perhaps then we could address the injustices that cause a small percentage of our world to consume the vast majority of its resources — not unlike what happened under apartheid in South Africa — while the vast majority lives in poverty, with over a billion people living on less than a dollar a day. Would you let your brother's or sister's family, your relatives, eke out a miserable existence in poverty? Would you let them go hungry? And yet every 3.6 seconds someone dies of hunger and three-quarters of these are children under five. If we realized that we are family, we would not let this happen to our brothers and sisters.
