Global Poverty

Global poverty is a very sensitive issue.Poverty is a disease created by people themselves.I am talking about that kind of poverty where people have no food,no shelter and no clothes.They look for food from dust bins and drink drain water but they do not die so fast and keep on producing more poor people on this earth.

These people do not believe in doing work for food or clothes or for shelter but keep cursing their destiny and God.

hello everyone,

Does anyone happen to have the list of projects to do after reading the books for the summer reading list?

The books I read were To kill a mockingbird and farewell to manzanar. Anything will help.

What are you reading?

Hello everybody! I recently, started a list of 100 books in English and 100 books in Spanish that I have to read before ending university. I have around 70 books in Spanish and 30 in English.

 

What are you reading? Any suggestions for my list?

 

Also, if you wish, I can publish my list if you are interested in books...

 

take care!
