BBC News- In Pictures

"BBC News- In Pictures" is one of my favorite sites to go to. (Check it out!)
Pictures speak to our hearts...messages and emotions that words can't.
The gallery is changing often. The shots are of anything and everything from anywhere... beautiful, raw, heartbreaking, concerning, and fun...tragedies are captured and victories are revealed.
Faces. Many many faces.
Deep inside I have a desire to know these souls which are behind the captured profiles... they are beautiful, do they know they are loved? Is anyone there to comfort them as they are weeping?
Pray. I can pray for them.

I'm no photographer, but I respect the people behind these shots that are displayed on bbc news. They go anywhere and everywhere to capture important events and be a voice for those suffering.
It connects us to humanity. Feeling connected with whats happening around the world is both overwhelming because one feel helpless, and special because it takes us out of the bubble we living in.

Struggle over the hard pictures. Don't ignore whats happening...learn about it, pray for them, maybe even...help?
 
But don't forget to enjoy and respect the shots of things which are beautiful; created things, passions, worship...art.
