Look in the mirror

Mr. Carter lost his humanity when he took this shot and then immediately left the area. I believe that is why he killed himself.

These words are not in judgment of Kevin Carter, for every day I spend dollars on that which I do not need while children starve half a world away. Every day I complain because there is *nothing to eat* meaning, not just exactly what I'm hungry for.

So, this reminder is for me principally; look in the mirror, see this child, try to complain about ANYthing at all.
