Honey, my hubs is a Vietnam Vet. That country took his soul and destroyed it. His mind too. If I did not have God in my heart and my life, my burden would be so heavy, I would not be able to move. I pray for healing for this country as well as for this world. This world needs LOVE, Harold. Desperately. When I see the suffering, I weep. This is why it is so important for me to surround myself with beauty and to share it with the world. (((HUGS))) Amy
Bless you. I need all the Love and Prayer I can get. The older he gets the worse he seems to be sinking into fear. And there is nothing I can do except to support him emotionally and love him in a way that does not frighten him. I could write another book on this subject. What war does to a human soul is horrendous. Thank you, Harold!!! You are indeed a bright light in my life! (((HUGS)) Amy
Thank you Hugs. I too love B&W. Doing more of it. I still do not know if her expression was caused by her lack of selling fruit, just having a bad day, not liking what she was doing to feed her children or my taking her photograph. I got language issues here.
The picture really does tell a story…depending on how different individuals perceive it. For me, her expression has to do with discontentment, probably due to a lack of sales. I hope she did sell something that day and hopefully walked home with a smile.
Through Harold's Lens 
Great shot, surely she cheered up after seeing you and selling the banana. There is always another day for more smiles!

Agree Amy. This beautiful country and culture was torn apart one bomb at a time. Maybe it can be re-built one fruit at a time.

I bought an apple and a banana from her after Mr. SLR Nikon took the shot. She smiled then, so maybe you are right Hugs.
