Hi, listen, I tried to read your post, but there's a huge banner in front of my screen and I can't take it off! I already closed the window and opened it again and it won't work.

Oh Lance!
This was amazingly beautiful! When my step dad left my mom she took her anger out of my sisters and I. She would literally joke and say she was not the mama. That truly made us feel abandoned, but I've always had God and my sisters.
This was an excellent post!

How can you capture those eyes?
That's my only question right now... They show how they feel in every image.
Those kids need hope to continue.. get opportunities to live a real life, get more than survival... get a hand and help.

That would have made my day. Sounds like a cute kid. His behavior doesn't remotely resemble sexual harrassment.

It all comes down to economics, I suppose, and how business in different countries try to fight their relative cultural baggage, in order to boost productivity, increase political stability, reduce wages, and increase efficiency.

Very true. Those men, as well as some icons who have already left, were symbols of a world in which we grew up and felt safer more powerful and capable of success simply by following the rules of decency and good. It did work for a while, even if it might have been an illusion. ?R

A very wise man once said, that sooner or later all countries are aware of the personal psychoses of their supreme leaders. We are getting to be aware of that problem with President Obama only now.
