I'm going to read more blogs when I have the chance! :)

No doubt, there are people that the ability to be content, no matter what. And no doubt, there are people that have a hopeless acceptance. Hope can sometimes be a hard thing to find. There are people that want to be left alone in all walks of life. I like your line, BakerStreet, about being the worse kinds of hypocrits. But there are actually few people "living off society".

I loved it! And I think you should put the freezer light question to the higher ups!!!! :)
And the Chinese are just as human. All humans have the right to dignity and value. Another good article!
