My First Experience with Poverty

My first experience with poverty might be my first visit to Mumbai,India. This might was a very very heart breaking story and for any one else.

My life was mostly filled with a great upbringing. I live in the rich country of Bahrain, where oil is cheaper than water, where it is easy to get anything and everything. In my lifetime I never saw poverty and I thought I never will. But one day, my dad wanted to go to India so that me and my brother can get some cultural knowledge.The day I set out I thought this might just be good and it might help me get some knowledge. The day I landed I had a good feeling about India especially about Mumbai after seeing their awesome new airport. But the moment, I reached the highway, I saw poverty on the roads itself. People were live in dirt and on the streets. They had wounds which were not properly treated. This made me very very very sad.

I thought what is a life if you can help a fellow human being. After seeing that horrid scene I couldn't sleep that night. That horrid scene kept coming in my mind again and again..........
