IRAQ THE MODEL

While I was wandering around the hospital where I work at, I saw some construction- finishing being done (on a holiday) near the hospital gate that is protected by the FPS, so I decided to take photos for the workers here, and here. A young kid caught my attention, as he was spending his time not by playing with marbles, fire works or soccer as other kids in his age usually do.
When I asked him about what he was doing, he was shy to answer, but after I insisted a little, he replied hesitantly "I'm building". Despite the dangers on his health that playing with mud may bring, I found it heart lifting, and it gave me hope.
