Description
This is a photo of everyday life in the Philippines. A commonality in almost every street in the metro and suburbs - a homeless young boy, half naked and hopeless. Nothing left to wear, nothing left to eat. No home, no family. No hope - for now. If only we could do something. Something to change this cruel yet predictable world. One step at a time, one step at a time.--
"Whenever you feel sad
Whenever you feel down and out
Lost love, falling grades, crappy friends or what
The thinking of ruining your life
Ending or asking for something new
Cursing how much you hate it
Think about this
Someone would rather live your life
Someone who needs help rather than being fed
Someone... Someone..
Try living your life through us,
Live your life through our daily eyes."

Manila, Philippines.

Incredibly sad, but yet, I hope that through this images a lot of people in the world don`t get to see, people start being aware of the needed and also of what they can do to help. I hope someone helps this child.
I am not a pro photographer, but I think it`s well taken, good contrasts and tells a history.
