Why does the sun shine not over?

While other people are sleeping but why I do not have home to sleep, while others are smile but why I could not smile, while others are study but why I do not have school to attend and while others have parents but where is my parents ????
..............................................................................
Wow...wow...I see the mist, I see nice view, I see nice moutain and I see nice village :) ......
NO! This is the camp........Wow!..The camp?
So beautiful camp!...but for whom?...For refugees....Haaaaah..Refugees? where are they from? .....This is not what I see from outside here any more...... This is the Biggest Refugee Camp....Called Maela Camp in Tak Province, Thailand....
Mostly Burmese refugees...oh..no..they do not want us name them as Burmese....They are from independent state in Burma Country.... 80% of people in the camp are Karen tribe from Karen state and the rest are from others....but how many people in this camp? 100 people..NO...1000 people....No.... but there are more than 50 Thousand people...
Why they have to come here? Because situation in Burma is unsecure. They have to leave their house, their home land and their dreams...
Do they want to sleep well as you? Of course! Do they like to smile? Of course! Do they want to study? Of course! and Do they want to have parents? Of course! But where? How?......

Do they wantto go back to their home land? Of course! But better not go (now) ....may be one day in the future :(

Situation in Burma still worse and need help from us.....Please do not look down of them and please do not leave them alone...

We are same humans, born on the same earth, alive on the same reign and why we have to exploit each others..?

and could you tell me.....why?

I wish I can do something for them. Life is unfair sometimes. I wish people living in my country will not take things for granted.

I'm sure if you're with them, you can bring joy to the little children :)

I know I cannot change or help them a lot but at least I want to relieve distress :)

Ur heart is in the right place Lee, but you gotta stop beating yourself up over something you can't control. This world is messed up already, we can play our part to make it better. But we can't change it immediately overnight. All the way Akha Hero!!!

Hey Lee u r doing really good stuff !! I wish I can quickly save up and do my bit for the refugees and e other children. As a urbanite, it is hard to let go of the material things once u r so used to it. I guess everyone has a role to play in this world. Courage and don't be too depressed. See u soon !
