Phone vs Food

The human longing for interaction is touching. I had a meeting with a vendor today, and he told me about working in Bangladesh, where the poor was a majority and the poor people could only afford between food or a phone call.

I am not ready to see poverty, I clearly could not understand this type of harshness of environments. But my heart goes out for those in this predicament, how could companies buy IT services or solutions when the customer cannot even afford to eat?

It is indeed a large world outside, and for a moment, I count my blessings for what I could do everyday and appreciate better the little difference I could make whether at work or at home.
