compassion
is building bridges
from heart to heart
even though
they are oceans apart.
it is reaching out
and helping out
a nameless,
faceless
stranger. (ire for Haiti)

This child is a Compassion sponsored child. We met him and his mother the first day we were in Port-au-prince, when they told us their house was one of the many destroyed by the massive hurricane earlier this year. When the waters were rising, the mother held her new born child, but the water eventually became too strong and she lost control of her child. As the waters destroyed their home, this boy managed to grab on to a tree and held himself there praying for God to save him. He held on through the entire storm. Unfortunately his younger sibling didn't make it.
We traveled far to come to the sight of his old house to shoot video and I really wanted to snap this picture. The thing that struck me about this picture is the expression on his face. In the midst of the storm, not to mention the conditions of Port-au-Prince, this kid has hope... Real Hope.
Because of Compassion, this child is not bound to just living a life of poverty, and he knows it. If you'd like to learn more about Compassion, please visit www.Compassion.com.
