A little girl is looking at herself in front of a mirror

She starts to ask

Why my eyes are so small

Why they are different from the others at school


Then she continues to ask

Why my skin is white while the others are black

Why I’m different from the others


After spending a little time

She figures out that she also has some similarities to the other She goes deep inside her eyes

And compares them with the other eyes


Then she understands that inside those eyes They have the same rights

They have the right to live in the way they want to live See the differences with bigger hearts not bigger eyes.

Representing this poem to the people who can't voice their opinion and don't know the purpose of their existence; in the end, silence is always haunting them.

Who said David and Goliath's fight was only history?
A real life reenactment of David and Goliath. A battle which shuts down the modern world. A battle which taught us the insignificance of our differences. A battle of a billion lives and a billion deaths.

Happy Sadtember
It's about the feeling, the moments, and the memory of September. When the spring turns into a heat wave, summer meets a rainy season. The traumatic effect, the dizziness of how the butterfly effect made you wanna sink. Either feeling too much or just too little without caring about the world. The happy yet sad moments in your special month. All in all, blend in the tin jar of honeycomb with the bittersweet taste spreading in your mouth.
