"時代は世界の多くの貧困について私たちに語りかけており、これはスキャンダルです。世界の貧困はスキャンダルです。これほど多くの富があり、すべての人々を養うための資源がこれほど多くある世界で、これほど多くの飢えた子供たち、教育を受けていない子供たち、貧しい人々がいることは理解しがたいことです。"
— Pope Francis
Simplified Meaning:
This quote is highlighting the shocking reality that despite the world having plenty of resources and wealth, there are still many people who are suffering from poverty. It's like going to a party with a huge buffet but seeing many people outside the party who can't even get a single bite to eat. The unfairness is hard to understand because the world has enough food and money to help everyone. For instance, imagine a school where some children have so many toys that they can't even play with all of them, while other children have none. This situation feels incredibly unfair, especially because sharing the toys could make everyone happy. The quote suggests that we need to be more aware and take action to help those less fortunate. People can apply this advice by being more generous and thinking about ways to support and share with others in need, such as volunteering, donating, or simply being more mindful of their own consumption.
