Today I found myself thinking again of "Mr X" the sad name given to a boy who no-one knows anything about ,nor really cares to find out.....A child with nothing,....and no-one!A young lad abandoned in the market for being 'different' - for carrying disabilities in his body and mind that rendered him disgarded, useless....and ultimately.....UNWANTED!
He is the inspiration and fuel for all of this. Wanting to see him receive his right to a name, to dignity, to life beyond mere existance - He is one of the reasons that I'm still here.....
Mother Teresa said " Lonliness and the feeling of being UNWANTED is the most terrible poverty'......
He's still sat there on his wooden slatted, urine soaked makeshift bed in the corner of a jail compound having committed no crime. I keep praying that he won't have to sit there much longer, that one day soon I can bring him and others like him 'home' and give him a real name and pour out all the love on him that he and every child deserves.....that he can be a someone.
WANTED: People who will help change life for children like 'Mr X'
REWARD: Immeasurable
