My full plate watched hands of love feeding the mouth of hunger
It hid itself in shame watching the beauty of love's surrender to another's hunger.
 "Hunger makes a thief of any man." - Pearl S. Buck

“The children of today are forming each day the mental concepts, the mental prejudices, the emotions, that are going to rule and govern them through their lifetime; and over at least half of the year, they are hungry. In many instances, in many countries, almost universally, they are going in packs, up and down alleys, they are searching for a garbage heap in which they find all too little of any kind of sustenance that will keep them alive. How can we expect children, who are reduced almost to an animal-like level of existence, struggling each day for any kind of scrap that will keep them alive, how can we expect them to develop the ideas and the ideals that in the future will bring them to be apostles of peace? They are, by the very nature of the struggle they are carrying on, wedded to the philosophy of force, whatever they get, they get by their own efforts and by scratching in the garbage heap. That cannot go on if we are to have peace.” This was the kernel of a stirring speech made by General Dwight D. Eisenhower, in 1948, to the UN General Assembly.

In 1961, the World Food Programme(WFP) came into existence  —  the winner this month of the Nobel Peace Prize. This award isn't just an acknowledgment of the noble work but also a mirror in which the harsh reality of our society reflects.
