Hope!

My blog post is about a picture I took while I engaged on a leisurely stroll away from a private beach in Lagos where I went with a few friends, this particular picture I took a few weeks ago has been on my mind since I took it. The picture really speaks to me. It speaks in a language loud but endangered, it speaks HOPE!

Do you see what I see?

Some might look at this picture and see abject poverty, but I see happiness, I see contentment, I see hope, I see the future. I see a young boy growing up to be a versatile manager, I see a another young lad growing up to be the next Jay Jay, and I see a young girl growing up to be a world known super model!
What do you see?
