Tears might be difficult to flow from your eyes yet it flows easily from that orphan's eyes. His tears drip like water. Tears that flow without any time of stopping. Even with rain, we see the clouds before it comes. But for the tears of an orphan, his or her pain can never be measured. We only see it through his. Can we hear the cry of that orphan?
On the scariest of nights, we hurry to rush home. On our way, we only need means to get home faster. On a rainy night, we rush to get to our rooms. On a cloudy day, we are worried if we will get home before the rain comes. For an orphan, a morsel to pass through the throat is what matters. His home seemed to have vanished with his parents. How can we live if we can't take the time to feel the pain of orphans?
Hope is what keeps them living. A better tomorrow is what motivates them to keep trying. A day coming their way tomorrow is what wakes them up to strive for the future. A heart that never gives up is what keeps them on their feet to always walk even if there is so much heat in the sun. for the charcoal seller son will surely wear a white shirt one day. They do have hope.
They can't live if we don’t support them. You open your mouth and your mother is there to comfort you. You miss a step and your father is there to lift your leg to the right path. The orphan loses guard and there is no one to see him. The orphan starts crying and there is no one to wipe the tears. If we could find ourselves in the orphans, we would be able to hear their cries. Find yourself in one and let his tears be something you wish to prevent. The orphan's cry isn’t healthy. Let's heal them.
In the obstacles of life, no one asked for it. they never bargained yet they bought it. they never had a voice yet they have to face the consequences. They never dared to live yet they are living even without an idea of what living is. They were never prepared yet life hit them hard to transform them into something they never dreamt of. Is it life we will blame much or does the orphan’s family have a hand in the blame?
A bond of blood called family should have a say. No one to take care of that orphan yet you share the same blood. What of what his parents have when they were alive? It benefited you but do you care to think what that orphan might need tomorrow? What of the riches his father gathered? Was the dream to make the family rich or to build a sustainable life for his kids? Yet you inherited it and called him a kid forgetting the kid will grow. What will that kid eat till he hits the adulthood stage? The orphans have to be heard. His cry is loud.
A support for them is a support for humanity. We all have a hand. Pick a finger and it will surprise you how many will help you in guiding and helping that orphan. There is a pain in the cry of an orphan. Let's hear it and find a way to live.
