Dasani-the Invisible Child Blog Post
1-The questions this piece raises for me is how these people will ever get out of poverty. There is a question of will they ever get out of poverty and how. It shows how once you are in poverty, it is hard to get out. After reading this article, I was wondering to what happened to Dasani after the article was published. I was wondering about their present financial situation. Regarding her financial situation, all I can say is that this world runs on capitalism. Thus, one of the drawbacks of capitalism is that some people will be poor and some will be rich. It is just how capitalism works. However, I feel that there is some way to reduce poverty without hurting the economic system. This article made me realize on the way things work in society. Money can get you anywhere. However, I realized that money cant by happiness because even Dasani can have happy moments.
2. Dasani's life and my life can be similar in many ways. No matter who you are, we all share the same basic problems. Dasani is a person who is hopeful of herself, and she wants to rise out of poverty. She is also blundered by daily stresses. I also am hopeful of my future, but I am bound to daily stresses like doing well in school, etc. Even though, it is not of the same magnitude, they are still similar problems.
3. If I had an opportunity to tell something to Dasani, I would tell her to save all her money. I would tell her that it is hard, but it would be of great use in the long-run. Also, I would tell her that to never let anybody tell you what you cant do, and to chase after your dreams. And to never let anybody take that away from you.
