Watched "Hotel Rwanda" the other night. I loved the way they depicted the harsh reality of the plight of many poor countries today.

To explain a little, my brother and I started a kid’s soccer school with another friend of ours helping out part time as well. Being the soccer freaks that my brother and I are, we […]
