Don’t you hate having an Older iPhone?

I hate how old and slow my iPhone 4 is. It sickens me to wait as it loads… No, I am not serious about what I just said, but there is a serious issue we must address in this piece.

People around the globe have no food, no clean water, no shelter. Kids go to bed hungry, wake up, work, and go to bed hungry again. There are serious issues. You wouldn’t believe what we take for granted.

Think of your morning commute. Do you try and avoid that annoying bridge where there’s always traffic? In a poor community I visited earlier this year, they didn’t have a bridge. People died trying to cross the river during the rainy season. I helped to construct a suspension footbridge, and now children can safely get to school, and poor farmers can safely transport their crops year-round.

In a recently released video, members of one of these poor communities recited lines about first world problems. The humorous, and inspiring video made a good point. First world problems usually aren’t problems. I only had a bagel for breakfast today. I’m starving. How about the kid who has had one small meal in two days? Think about it.
