-And what of those who live in the dark, the dirty, the neglected part of town where crime is rampant, gangsters rule and life is cheap?

-And of those who live a life of nothingness?

-And those who have paid their debt to society but continue to be punished, ostracised, marginalised, forgotten?

-And those who have never had the chance or opportunity to learn the teachings of Jesus? Of Buddha? Of Moses? Or even of their own mothers and fathers?

-What of those who fancy the best things in life and take them from those who have honestly acquired them?

-What of those who work from dawn till late at night and still cannot make it to the end of the month?

-Shouldn’t there be a way to reach them?

-No…

-No?

-Did you reach them ever?

I’ve never tried…
