with airlifted orphans from Vietnam to the US. April 12, 1975. I found this photo incredibly striking.

This is a reminder to persevere even when you have had challenging experiences.

Eyes Like Sky
 |
| Frank Ocean |
Frank ocean has always been one of my favorite artists. I particularly like this song for its moving lyrics. His song eyes like sky is a metaphor for a blind boy being able to see the Earth from the sky. The green girl represents grass, the blue man could represent the ocean. When the blind boy sees Frank as yellow, he might be seeing the sun shining through Frank. This goes on throughout the song as if there is a conversation between Frank Ocean and the sky.

I have always had a great admiration for poetry. I have been following Chris's poetry on instagram (Click Here) and wanted to share a few of my favorites. I enjoy reading his poems because I find them hauntingly beautiful and incredibly touching.

Angelina Jolie Visits Syrian Refugees
Angelina Jolie visits Syrian refugees who have moved to Lebanon's Bekaa Valley due to the ongoing war in their native country. She sits with the children and listens to their heart-wrenching stories. It saddens me that this is the fate of thousands of Syrian refugee children.
"Becoming refugees has forced them to grow up before their time, their childhood has been lost to the horrors of this conflict." -Angelina Jolie
