As the year draws to a close, the end of year reflections are beginning. I saw this post of 45 of the most powerful images from 2011. I encourage you to take a few moments to view them.
These are all some very powerful images. It shows us how much we have to be thankful for in our every day lives. The people in Japan and Joplin did not expect the total destruction that entered their lives on those fated days.
Most of us don’t have to live daily with the destruction that comes from these natural disasters or the man-made ones as the little Afghan boy at the end does. Most of our children will never know the kind of suffering you see in the Kenyan child.
Standing up for right and protecting the rights of others is a powerful and wonderfully human act that we should all engage in regardless of our differences as the Christians protecting the Muslims in prayer show.
And most powerfully, just hurting with our fellow man, as many of the pictures show, is what will keep us most humane.
What moved you about these pictures?
