And you think that we have it tough???
Watch the 2 minute video. It's really a good one.
They say that necessity is the mother of invention, and that is never truer than in this video. The small and very poor town of Sitio Maligaya, in the Philippines, has been blessed with the inventiveness of a man who literally came up with a "bright" idea. The little shanties that many of the townspeople live in have no windows, and are so dark inside they are good for nothing other than sleeping. Watch this short clip to see how the man is solving that problem. The name of the town translates into English as "Happy Place", and it is gradually becoming happier than it was.
