don't worry

Description

December 26, 2004
Banda Aceh, Aceh Province, Indonesia

One of the greatest natural disasters in the world occurred after a 9.0 earthquake in the Indian Ocean. Entire populations were washed away and their cities, towns and villages obliterated. My next collection of photographs will try to encompass what I saw when I went there May 28-29.

--------------

Children aren't supposed to worry. Children are supposed to be encompassed in their own little worlds.

This young girl proved otherwise. She had interesting character. The entire time we were there she was running around in her own little world. But for a few seconds she stood there, engrossed in thought. I came up to her and she looked up and I took the photograph.

Look into her eyes. Those are the eyes of a child who has lived through things we can never fathom. Her house, family, everything vanished before her eyes.

Look into the eyes of a 5 year old girl, eyes full of worry.

Worry about food, shelter, school, family, friends.

Things a 5 year old shouldn't worry about.

God Bless Aceh
