Even if only one can be saved

When I saw this film, it was the third year after I watched some volunteer teaching in Shangri-La.

This movie has a good footing, but then it slowly made me feel like nonsense.

Poor people must have something to hate, and the history of poverty and backwardness in these countries is not just a day or two. In these places, the sins and greed of human nature are exposed more thoroughly. It is undoubtedly of little use for us outsiders to simply help, but because of our sympathy, in the end, we will still do something that we think can help. Their. But in reality, the result is still the same. It is nothing more than the object of death has changed from A to B or C.
There are too many reasons why some countries in Africa or Asia are so poor. What I can't understand is why they are so poor and have children? They are so poor, how can they still have time and physical strength to have children? Shouldn't they find ways to earn money and find food? The fact is that there are still so many children. . . The newspapers always say how many African children have died this year. . . How the hell did all these children get here? Why not do family planning? What are these men and women thinking? Giving birth to babies and then starving them to death or enjoying the African version of misery?

When my friend was teaching in Shangri-La, the school he taught had money to buy a car for the principal, but no money to add an accordion to the children to teach. What the fuck is this logic? These dog-like public servants do not ride on the heads of the masses every day to poop and pee. . . The oppressed people also live well, and they do not feel dissatisfied in the slightest. Now we go to help them, go to teach, to tell them the changes in the world, there is really little power.
However, there are still so many courageous and enthusiastic young people who have gone to volunteer education, help the poor, and use their own money to help children in poor places. Like me, they clearly know that their power is small, but even if it can only change a person's fate?

Beyond Borders quotes

  • Sarah Jordan: Perhaps we are all refugees from something, but I see now there is nothing to fear, that the world we hold onto, the lives we cherish, are a part of something greater, something more. When I look at my children I see it so clearly, that hope, that chance of life, and I know it's worth fighting for.

  • [first lines]

    Sarah Jordan: I wonder, do we all know where we belong? And if we do, in our hearts, why do we so often do nothing about it? There must be more to this life, a purpose for us all, a place to belong. You were my home. I knew from the moment I met you, that night, so many years ago.
