Whenever I look back through photos or videos that were taken while filming for the documentary #SentuhanHarapan , my heart feels really heavy and most times I tell myself not to cry and stop myself from over thinking. But if only I could tell you how much every single day filming for Sentuhan Harapan meant for me. For me to meet children who have nothing to eat, nothing to wear, not knowing what's next for them the next day. It breaks my heart so much knowing that I can't help them. That I can't change their lives not even in the least.
These little preschoolers you see here are the Badjao children. Children of the sea people who live in poverty in the Philippines.
They are almost always covered in grime and dirt and hungry.
So in this shoot in a tiny shelter converted into a preschool, when I got to see them in clean T-shirts and clean hair, it was so emotional for me. This free preschool and free food (once a day) is the hard work of a non-profit organisation.
No matter the bad things we see in the world, humanity will shine through.
I'm seriously thinking of compiling all of my short stories in blog so that these memories I made, will never get lost with time.
