         		 The afternoon calm. A man takes his time in his small boat for the afternoon's catch. A catch of seafood for his family'd dinner or for the dinner of the people waiting in the market.: by concernthinker, Views[244]
         		 A person and his dose of smoke. Aroma that comes from the roasting of the pig and his daily dose of Tobacco in his lungs. Bato, Cebu: by concernthinker, Views[279]
         		 SENSE OF TASTE. A young girl holds a slice of 'freshly picked' Indian mango from the garbage and drinks a glass of soda bought from a retail store. At the end of the day, it is their survival from hunger that matters most. Just like all other people, they find more appetite in the food that are fruits of their labor.: by kurtzky, Views[614]
         		 SENSE OF TOUCH. A young boy finds a toy car in a sack of segregrated trash.

         		 SENSE OF HEARING. A young girl on the street of Payatas—a slum area in urban Quezon City—hears the bell of an incoming dump truck.

Families earn money by selling items to nearby junk shops.: by kurtzky, Views[1572]

         		 Justin and Kathlyn (not their real names) are both congenital heart disease patients and usual playmates.

         		 Patients playing with the toy MRI machine, a gift from one of the donors to familiarize the kids with medical equipment.

         		 Jen (not her real name), diagnosed with lymphoma, reads a storybook inside one of the dormitory rooms while waiting for her doctor's appointment.

         		 This is Leslie (not her real name), one of the cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy that are staying in Tahan-tahanan.

         		 While the kids are busy playing and sharpening a stone as their toy, Ailyn, 24, is piling up the sorted stones before putting them in sacks, ready for sale and pickup by costumers. The smallest stones cost 25 Philippine Peso (PHP25.00) or approximately half a dollar (USD0.50) per sack and the bigger stones cost even lower. She said, “Proceeds from the gathered stones are just enough to make both ends meet for the family.”: by bingtajon, Views[421]
