But, anyway, the news made me recall the photo below of two very young Nepali girls (maybe 10 years old?) at sunset, carrying wood they had gathered from the forest. Not recorded in the photo are the groups of unemployed men loitering in front of village shops, standing around playing cards, picking their noses and staring into space. In this respect I thought of the symbolism caught in this image.
So God bless women around the world ...
