Caught a little item on Sky News about the favelas of Brazil. This one concerned a kind of alley in which homeless, abandoned children congregate. The reporter was interviewing a girl of twelve, already having to sell herself. Almost too painful to watch.
I sometimes think that to have a happy childhood in which one is allowed to be a child is the greatest blessing that can be bestowed on any human being. Having been blessed in that manner it's difficult for me to take in the idea of the dreadful alternatives. But such a failure of imagination cannot be excused.
