it makes us appreciate what we have and how lucky we are. How ironic it is, when certain parts of the world, people are obese and overindulged themselves with food and don't try their best to save these poor souls. I'm really proud of this guy who struggles working. Rather than the others alcoholic who don't try hard enough.. But yeah, it's hard. People nowadays just take things for granted. They should watch these to open up their minds and hearts.
