Thank you for sharing. I can't express enough how much I admire those who do charity work to help those in this situation or who share the stories of these strong people.

This is one of those photographs that captures the adult in a child. What an expression.

I do love your shot but there are no beggars.
Just people who need help and many don't know how or what to ask for. Many of them do die in body and in mind. I was one of those kids. There are many children all over the world. Pakistan is a hard place for young girls. I am very sorry about that but you're an amazing photojournalist and a very good man too.

Thank you for the appreciation.Β I do understand what you are saying.
Here I used the word beggar in a more professional sense ... just to explain.
