Does anyone remember the picture of the Green Eyed Girl, as she was called, from Afghanistan and poster girl on the National Telegraphic Magazine ? There is this article about her today. Very sad. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-38640487 ![[Linked Image]](https://news.artnet.com/app/news-upload/2015/06/cover-nat-geo.jpg)

Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. All things are bound together. All things connect.

It was such a penetrating picture, never to be forgotten. Only ten when it was taken and married at thirteen !! We have to wonder if she had lived in a Western/European country, how beautiful she may still have been.
Hmm ? That doesn't come across right, but you know what I mean.
