Last year I was given the chance to take a short trip to my home country Yemen, a place where millions are struggling to make it each day. This singular photograph captured the lives of many of the residents living in the city of Aden. The boy in the center is no older than 16 seen carrying numerous bags, whether thats for his family back at home or for work. The woman behind him isn't his mother or sister but rather known as in Yemen, a 'beggar' . I experienced many women coming up to me asking me and my family for money daily. The background shows the environmental situation, the unorganized and broken roads, the tore down posters. Overall I hope this photo can educate people of how many billions of humans live everyday.

Everybody sees the world in a different way. These different perspectives, opinions and interpretations are what lead to true creativity. Creativity is different for everyone and I think that's the best way to describe it.
