Natural Abundance
The world is rich in natural resources and other means that are originally provided for the people to survive. However as a result of the viciousness of the people over and above their lack of knowledge and awareness, these natural reserves are rapidly declining and as a result people are scavenging for a way to survive.
There are a lot of impoverished people these days that are living in a hand-to-mouth existence. There are very limited resources now and some people, just like those living in Africa are already fighting over what is left. People are now living in a dog-eat-dog society.
Good thing there are some mining opportunities still available for people who are living in areas where the mineral properties are still high. Gold exploration as well as diamond exploration is being done to check the availability of these resources in specific areas. Those who are interested are trained and are given the opportunity to find a way to uplift their lives and find a decent living for their families.
There are some joint ventures being done by some reputable mining companies and the government to salvage what is still left and find some ways on how to develop this industry. One very good example is one of the joint ventures Mauritius that is helping a lot of people and societies in general to have a better income.
People, especially those who are living in Third World countries, need to understand that dependency will lead them nowhere. They have to act and work hard for themselves and for their family to survive. Another thing that these projects are teaching to the people is the value of perseverance. They can not be contented with what little that they have when the world can offer them a lot of wealth. They just need to tap their faculties and join hands with some people who are willing to give them a boost and guide them through.
