Life Problems?


Watch this film if you think your life is hard. Juliano Ribeiro Salgado's film lets you see the world through the lens of his father, Sebastiao Salgado, as it really is, not how you think it should be. I loved this film and encourage anyone who thinks they have problems to watch and be grateful for who you are and what you have.

I always say that their is always someone worse off then us. Some people can't even get clean drinking water! We are practically rich with tons of super special packed everything on the shelves. When I was a kid staying in the Azores Portuguese Islands, I went to the store to buy a by of rice just before 12pm
Lunch break to close. I got exactly that, a bag of rice & a bag of milk. No cartoon & fancy printing. Just a clear bag with rice in it and a white sealed bag of milk with the blue printed leite

On the other hand you can't really look at anyone's life problems with an arbitrary measure. Yes, most people have safe drinking water. Yes, there are people who don't have safe drinking water. Does it mean that this is the measure of happiness or trouble-free life? If not, what is that measure? Should all rich people be happy because they are free of certain kind of troubles? Should it be allowed on the internet to write a post with so many questions in it?
