Day 3

Once again, the meal of the day is the humble sandwich. I finished up what was left from the can of sardines, added 2 eggs, a stick of celery and an onion; fried it all up, and made 3 sandwiches. Ate the leftovers that couldn't fit into the sandwiches for lunch, and spread those 3 loaves over the course of the day.

I'm also very encouraged by people like Kenneth and Julia, who i met and had the chance to find out about their meal plans for the past few days. I think we're all starting to get a hang of this kind of lifestyle, although i doubt we'll we able to do this for months, let alone years on end.

My devotion passage today is Psalm 111. The verse that stuck out was verse 5, which reads "He provides food for those who fear Him...", which led me to wonder why there are so many people dying of starvation each and every.. second.

I guess the thing about this whole challenge, at least to me personally, has gone beyond simply trying to experience what a construction worker goes through, and more towards what the rest of the poor world feels like, albeit briefly.

Sometimes i feel there's so much that can be done for those who have to live like this (or worse), but most of the time, i'm at a lost at what really is the true solution.
