Heartbreak

I was sitting on my station one jaded day when team mates showed me what they had browsed at. A sudanese girl fainted out of starvation on her way to a feeding center while just a meter away, landed a vulture waiting for the young girl to die so it can eat her. The photo was taken by a photographer Kevin Carter who committed suicide months after.

Kevin Carter, Fragment of his suicide note


It was heartbreaking:(

I scowled because I had no shoes on my feet, until further down the street I saw a man with no feet at all.
