Defining_Love#2

2 years, 1 month

According to the Oxford English dictionary, the first synonym for love is compassion. Survival. There are no cuddly toys to comfort. Nor are there computers, iphones or electronic toys in this young boy’s life. This child labourer lives in the streets. Food...when will he eat next? In his inured eyes I see pain and sadness. This world he is trapped in has robbed him of any joy. We so need to have compassion for all of humanity, not just within our own country but the borders of our minds.
