I'll tell you why I love this picture. I know that many of you, myself included, don't really think about what is happening in other countries. There are wars, famine, and lack of life happening simultaneously all over the world.
6,353 miles away these Lao workers are smiling and having good time regardless of the environment. Their smiles prove that at least one day out of their life someone said something that really touched them and made them laugh. They are working for a great cause. Seeing them smiling made me smile and appreciate all that life has to offer. I think if we were simplier people we'd be a much happier society. That however, we will never know. Society has taught us that name brands, big homes, expensive cars, and lots of jewelry is what makes us who we are...and the sad truth is that some of us believe that. Everytime your life seems to get in the way of your happiness think of these Lao workers and remember to smile because life really isn't that bad.
The journey is the reward...
Until next time...
