Access and Poverty
Does everyone in your community have access to these things?
The nature of life for an individual is based on various things. These things include housing, clothing, food, good health care, childcare and cell phone among many important possessions that we require for our day-to-day living. In our community, not everyone has an access to these things. The major reason that has deterred people to access to them is poverty. Some people are jobless and therefore cannot access to certain things such as good shelter, food and even credit for their cell phones. Therefore, this has hindered them to lead a good life and even deterred them from accomplishing their goals.
How is a person’s day impacted by not having these things in his or her life?
Lack of these things impacts negatively on an individual and even to the way that person manages the day. Such people feel that their days are longer. They are mostly bored and have a negative attitude towards life especially when they see their colleagues leading good lives. Some of them spend the day idling with their colleagues in the shopping center telling stories.

After reading the chapter and attending class this week, what are one or two questions that have peaked your curiosity?
The two questions that have really heightened my curiosity include: What makes people to be successful and others failures? Why is it that many people are poor and yet they have adequate resources at their disposal? And is success a matter of luck or hard work?
