today i went to payatas. it was very surprising to see how even the kids' eyes glimmer at the sight of trash.
they don't look so austere, mind you. low-income, that's all. i'm sorry if i can't be politically correct, but... scavenging seems to be an inseparable part of their system. the very thing that killed their kin a few years back is the same thing that allows them what they could afford of a decent life.
