Unsafe Journey

Photo and caption by Amy Helene Johansson.

A woman is riding between the railway carriages of a local train heading north from Dhaka, the Bangladesh capitol. Her luggage is tucked under the carriage in front of her. It is the month of Ramadan, a fast which culminates in Eid-ul-Fitr, a three-day celebration. Tens of thousands of people leave the city to go to their home village and celebrate with their families. Trains are packed and many who fail to get tickets before they sell out or can’t afford buying them at the black market ride on the roof of the train or, like this woman, finds a quiet spot between the carriages.

I found this picture from the National Geographic Website.

They have sooo many good photos, and my quotes usually come from The Quotations Page.



I think this quote is important because so many people today complain about their problems, instead of finding a way to solve it. I truly feel that if something is important enough for you to complain about, then it should be more important enough for you to solve :)
