Smile
Sometimes posting an image just because it makes one smile is all that’s need, this amazing image was painted by a young lady of 14 years,
she has a learning disability and autism, has been attending school two days a week for the last four weeks and brought this picture home,
the picture is not only full of colour but full of joy, a talented young lady.
New shoes
Werfel, a 6-year old Austrian orphan, beams with unbounded joy as he clasps a new pair of shoes. Austria, 1946.
Of all the pictures that I have posted over the years this has to be the one that always makes me smile because of the absolute joy shown on this young boys face but makes me sad that something that take for granted clearly meant so much to him.
About
My wife, bless her tells me that I am rapidly becoming, or perhaps that should read have become a “Grumpy old fart”, so what better forum to spread my doom, gloom and paranoia than WordPress. I also have a love of old pictures, postcards and Edwardian Actresses, in particular Miss Gabrielle Ray which I hope to share at regular intervals. As my collection has grown I have set up another blog which contains only pictures of Miss Ray. Gabrielle Ray Thank you for viewing and comments are welcome.
