“As a kid who failed out of high school as a freshman, I know firsthand and personally that sense of hopelessness and just being - drifting in the wrong direction, having really no hope. And being able to harness that frustration was incredibly valuable in my life.

We can cure physical diseases with medicine, but the only cure for loneliness, despair, and hopelessness is love.

The poverty in the West is a different kind of poverty -- it is not only a poverty of loneliness but also of spirituality. There's a hunger for love, as there is a hunger for God.” WorldLoveKindLittlesDifferentTodaySpiritualityPeacePovertyPiecesDyingLonelinessDespairDiseaseMedicineWestHungerBreadCuresDifferent KindsHopelessnessUbuntuUnwantedUnlovedLittle LoveLeprosyHunger And PovertyHunger PovertyHunger For LoveBeing UnlovedHunger For GodSpiritual Hunger Book:A Simple Path-Open Market Source: A Simple Path-Open Market
