Have faith

This lady is a common sight near where I live. She carries a picture of a saint with her, and goes begging from car to car at a busy intersection. She wears very thick glasses, and I'm often concerned for her safety, but she seems to maneuver between cars well.

une belle photo sur un sujet assez dur.

This photo brings up wells of compassion for this poor soul. Very touching, Bibi.

Very touching shot! I wish her well—and safe—in the new year.

What a life she must have...but she must be determined and I think, after looking at your photo and reading your commentary, you've captured that well.

Ye olde saint ain't gonna help her much, though.

Beautifully captured image of a very sad situation Bibi, how does a person's situation come to this..that saying 'there but for the Grace of God go I' is so apt these days.

A very poignant image Bibi...I too often wonder about the life path of individuals such as this woman...
