my boy

another sad day today as my young son had to perform his first official duty as a member of the school council by attending the funeral of a 13 year old boy from his school who was killed while crossing the road. He had safely crossed then he stepped back onto the road to pick up his thong & was hit by a truck. So much sadness & so much waste, deepest sympathies to his family & friends.

I was going to write something funny about his expression but luckily I read your text first.
A sad day for all of you.

@jdonnelly it's ok Joseph, you can say something funny about his expression...we could do with some laughs around here at the moment.

@winshez .....I was going to say if the wind changes he could stay like that.
Seems a bit daft now though.

@jdonnelly well it gave me a chuckle anyway :) thanks

The passing of any life is a sad occasion, when it is a young one doubly so. Heavy burden for the cohorts.

A sad story. Nice B&W portrait!
