Every morning, right before work this man is standing outside of the corner store on Clinton Place & Hawthrone Avenue. When the store opens he’s usually the one to sweep in front of it, so more then likely he gets a couple of dollars for it. But what sparked my interest the most is this mystery behind him for some reason. Honestly, every time I see him I have a different vision of what his life use to be, even if it’s the obvious poor, searching for the next buck downfall type of life.

WOW!! I think I really just had a tear fall from my eye. I relate to this so much. Specially the part when the little boy said “I would like to have my own room and be one of those kids that knows what it feels like. They have a house they have their own bedroom, they have their own bathroom, they have their own T.V., they have everything.” DAMN!!

Another photo from my iPhone. I have one more week left. I’m still loving everything about the Philippines especially the Michael Jackson like stares from people. They, honestly, haven’t seen a tall black man before so I’m a tourist attraction right now.
