A strong little boy

First of all I have to say that this picture made me think that our lives can change in a second, and nobody knows what can happen tomorrow only God. Secondly there are a hug number of stuff that came to my mind when I saw this picture the first time. One of those things is that this little boy comes from a poor family, he does not deserve to have just one hand but unfortunately he does. It made me think, too that he does not accept himself as the way he is, and also he has some traumas when he gets older, he will be judged by other children, he will feel less than other children even though everybody is the same.

On the other hand this picture made me think what happened with this little boy? What was he doing when he lost his right hand and part of his left one? So that seeing this photo we could ask ourselves many question of this innocent boy, however at the very beginning the first reason that came to my mind was he lost his hand because of an accident or he cut his hand off accidentally and many stuff like these, but what really called my attention was that despite of this hand I notice that he wants to fight against this accident because in the picture he is drawing with the rest of his right arm. There is no doubt that he wants to handle with his problem although he does not have happy smile on his face, but he seems to be a strong boy and the people who love him must be so proud of him.

I believe that everything happens for a reason and despite of his defects he seems a normal child with no hand and some scars on his face but there is nothing that can bring him down. I also believe that in the second picture he does not care about what othe people think or say about him because they are not walking in his shoes.

Here you have the real story about this incredible boy :http://thegroundtruth.blogspot.com/2007/04/story-of-saleh-khalaf.html
