Making a living

Instead of comparing our lot with that of those who are more fortunate than we are, we should compare it with the lot of the great majority of our fellow men. It then appears that we are among the privileged. ~ Helen Keller

Helen Keller was such an inspiration to many. I love her quotes and I was surprised to find out that many popular ones that passed my ears as I was growing up were from her.

There are so many hard working women trying to make ends meet. The pic you posted captures this essense and it's so common in Asian countries. I saw one not too long ago of a little boy sleeping on a bike while his mom worked on one of the food carts.

Great quote to go with the picture. Sometimes we need a wake-up call. :)
