" The very idea of throwing away food here was unthinkable, especially eighteen children watching you, waiting for you to finish. I force-fed myself every last grain as fast as I could, guilty replaying scenes from my life of dumping half-full plates of food. "
( Grennan , 20 )

" I loved the children at Little Princes. I hadn't realized how very much I had missed them for the last   twelve months until that day "

We take our essential items to live for granted many times. For me, I take the longest showers and think water will  never run out but some people in parts of the world don't have running water. Reading this part made me think, all the food I take at dinner I never finish and becomes waste. Since this quote I've started to not waste as much that I used to. Also, I started working a soup kitchen helping out serving food to the homeless.

After a year from being away from the children it shows Conor truly cares about them. Conor loves the kids and it changed his perspective from just being able to brag that he helped orphaned children but actually be proud of what he did and loved the fact that it changed this life.

" We marveled at the images on TV, at the faces of these peaceful, wonderful, loving people, suddenly crazed with passion, with determination, with revolution, with the spirit that drives men and women to stand on front lines and absorb bullets and batterings to win freedom for those who stand behind them. "

" I wasn't even angry anymore; I just felt slightly dizzy, like walking away from a car accident. This was all a charade. Everything I had said I could do could not be done. The children were gone. That was life in Nepal. this packed room of distressed parents told that story every single day. "

The country has not had many good people sticking up for others. People are bringing others down in sadness and not caring about each other only themselves. All the shootings we have had are mostly about anger in the world or having a mental illness.

Gyan gave Conor information on the seven lost children and he found out their was nothing he could do. Conor was loosing hope and feeling terrible. After trying so hard to go on this treck to find them, nobody has seen the children. When I was helping delivering some toiletries to the homeless, one lady asked me if I say her dog and I said no and I know you will find her. Even though I've never seen her dog I know he or she is out there. Conor still believed their some where and he needs to find them.

" He asked me in many different ways why was I doing this for children in Nepal. Why not somewhere else? Why not helping in my own country? I had no good answer for him, except to simply say that in Nepal, nobody else was taking care of them. What other reason was there? "

Seeing that Conor is American and chooses to help out Nepal's trafficked children, people will have various thoughts on why but he cares and wants the best for the kids. Why Rinjin asked him so many different times wonders me because I feel he thinks nobody wants to help their part of the world because their is so many trafficked children out in Humla.
