A Picture and a Thousand Words
Photo found on http://www.viralnova.com/touching-photos/. I do not own.
Dear Readers,
When I first saw this photo of volunteers Rajesh Kumar Sharma and Laxmi Chandra giving free education to homeless, orphaned, and impoverished children in India, I didn’t have any words. Acutally, I couldn’t even find the words to express the emotion I felt. Two weeks later, I found them. And although they may not be a thousand words, and although this photo is worth so much more, these are the words I have. I invite you to add more.
Goodness
Godliness
Compassion
Passion
Strength
Will
Drive
Love
Hope
Hope
Hope
I shall follow up with another post on this photo.
Peace and Love,
Ariffa

What a photograph!
Indeed it is!
I add to your list lucky. For these people are lucky that you posted this, Ariffa. Also awareness. Thank you for making me aware of the suffering in this world.
I’m so glad, Carol! Your comment reminded me of the main reason as to why I write.
Humility. Obedience. Hunger for Truth. Sowing good seed to reap a harvest. These are some words that come to mind as I drink in this beautiful photo.
Wonderful, Vera. Thank you.
Thirst for knowledge, desire to grow.
Indeed. Great words.
Ariffa, as I read this blog excerpting a study on the connection between praise and self-esteem, I thought of you. It’s an interesting read – see what you think?
