I’m trying to remember which year was it, or which trip specifically, that drew me towards kids. Be it observation, pictorial or engagement. Above is a picture with me and four cousins I had never met prior. One on level, children across lands, know little of colour, belief, background, language, but probably appreciate humanity more than their larger counterparts. To quote someone’s comment on this picture:

by the way that pic of you with the kiddos IS SO DAMN CUTE! to quote one website that i randomly read, it’s the sort that makes women’s ovaries hurt. LOL!!!

I am now in south Yemen, away from KL for 10 days. Mainly, I am in Tareem, Hadhramawt, a knowledge hub, among other things. Instead of writing of my experience here thus far, I’ll share the quote above that I came across on my first evening here while I was visiting the author of this book.
