Lest We Forget

If you don’t help feed them, who will?

An ad for Concordia Children’s Services in the Philippines
This really brings it all home does it not? I am a great believer in ads for world disasters and the like having a really strong message and this is one of the strongest I have ever come across.
BRAVO!

Yes, sometimes the visual image -the shock of it - gets people's attention more than anything else.

Oh my, Di how incredibly sad and moving. ;-(
It is important for us as citizens of the world and all children of God to have the cards laid out on the table.
Yes, this is one or the most powerful photographs I have ever seen. Thank you for sharing it. People don't like to look at ugliness but it is important, because we, on this earth are ALL interconnected, just like a hand is part of a body and couldn't work if it didn't have all the other parts.

I can´t stop looking at it. So sad, so wrong, so unfair. A very good ad.

Dear Di,

in a blogland of things, objects, appearances & image, thank you for reminding us about what is really important.

Just wondering - What has it inspired you to do about it personally?

I will think about it for me.. :-)
