Perspective
Jan 11, 2012
Perspective... Sometimes it is all about perspective. The CNN photo blog highlighted people in Hong Kong who live in cages. The cage is their home and the opportunities to change that address are non-existent.

The blog posts people wrote in response to these photos included a healthy dose of gratitude for what one has. The culture within the United States is under duress, no question about it. But a look at humans who must live in cages due to an absence of resources, alternatives, or options is jarring. And it is a palate cleanser at a minimum. We in the United States and in most of the western countries have experienced economic challenges in recent years. But our challenges are quite different from many around the world who will never be able to lift themselves out of abject poverty. What is your perspective?
