Chapter 31
All people live downstream.
The greatest rage is when you scream so loud you cannot hear the scream.
Danger has anger in it, tragedy rage.
Anonymity vitiates worth.
First, do no harm.
Second, do no harm.
Third, do no harm.
Fourth,....
Pills are now our pillows.
FORTUNE 500 vs. MISFORTUNE 7,000,000,000
Knowledge sees that all are different, wisdom that all are one.
You cannot hoard love.
We are ordained when the sun touches our brow.
Back in their hotel room, Bian sat down with Jon.
"You know, of course, Jon, that the poor and extremely poor of the world earn less than $2 a day. That's about one-in-four of all Citizens of Earth. Unconscionable!" Bian said.
"You know as well inequalities such as fewer rights and resources are primarily based on caste, gender, ethnicity, and tribal affiliation. Decades of civil war across the globe have exacerbated these injustices. Now violence on local levels has become
increasingly injurious. Hunger and malnutrition stunt the lives of billions, weakening their strength and energy while debilitating their immune systems making them all the more susceptible to illnesses that hinder or **** them.
"Moreover, without viable health-care systems--especially for mothers and children--illnesses like malaria, diarrhea, and respiratory infections can be fatal. Furthermore, pregnancy and childbirth can be death-dealing.
"Over two billion Citizens of Earth don't have access to clean water at home. Contaminated water leads, of course, to waterborne diseases. Poor water infrastructure abets this deleterious situation.
"The catastrophic climate crisis Earth is now enduring, say experts, will push more than 100 million people into poverty over the next decade."
Jon stood up and gave Bian a big hug and a sweet kiss.
Mr. Ly and his friends had many, many other friends, large groups of whom lived in every nation on Earth. All were anonymous and all were devoted to creating PEACE ON EARTH THROUGH LOVE.
Concomitantly, these groups discreetly followed Bian and Jon into the country the two had just left and began helping the poor: food, water, housing, health care, education--in any way they could.
Love is contagious.
