Welcome to Peace Over Poverty

The world is a good place to anyone I know. Whenever I ask “How’s Life” (which I do a lot) usually I get back good, nice, and great! Sometimes if I ask a stressed adult I don’t get a very positive answer, but the best answer I ever got was “Great! I have a full tummy, a safe place to sleep and an education, life’s just… great!” That made me think, are there many people in this world who don’t have a full tummy, a safe place to sleep, or even an education? Then I realized that I haven’t seen the real world. Almost all my life I have lived in the same town, that’s all I know. What is the real world like? I have decided the best way to figure this out is to learn about and explore the real world and share my findings with anyone who will listen and read this blog.

Mexico

I didn't take pictures of everything in Cabo. There were other things I saw as well. For instance, twice when I was on the highway I saw a bunch of guys just sitting in the back of a pickup truck, acting like they were just sitting in the truck with seat-belts! And whenever I went down to the beach all I heard was "Senora, Senora" from beach venders trying to sell everything from "real" silver, to blankets! When we were out in town I saw a women with three children trying to sell trinkets, and her children were holding baskets with the trinkets inside trying to sell them as well! One of her kids couldn't have been more then 4 years old! I wish I had gotten to see more of Mexico, but we spent most of our time in the hotel sadly. I can't wait to go back!
