Happy Ending

As this is my last post for the cultural encounter blog, I am still debating whether or not I should continue to post even after I am done with my Anthropology class. As for now, I would like to end my journey with a short blog post.
Voiceless children has made me a more aware person, it has made me more aware of the other countries in the world (especially countries in Africa) that also have many abusive and tragic cases of child labor, poverty and lack of education. I learned facts and developed new ideas I never thought I would. People ask how does child labor make sense to you? To tell you the truth, it really does not. I do not know of a single person who has the heart to allow a child under the age of twelve to work in the harmful environment of a factory. I do not think I will stop blogging because I believe if I stop blogging, it is the same as giving up on the children. Giving up on poverty. Giving up on education. Hopefully, this will not be my last post. I will forever continue to raise awareness and post updates: 
Until then, I would like you to visit a couple of sites: 
www.freethechildren.com
www.freerice.com
www.peta.org

It has been a wonderful journey, 
Thank you
