This is a picture of a brazilian kid who was part of the “cultural group of reggae”, playing his instrument in the funeral of his mentor who saved him from an environment of poverty and crime. He was rescued from the street.

can’t not reblog.

ah this kid is named Diego Frazão Torquato and he died at age 12 due to an infection after having an operation on his appendix, likely exacerbated by complications from leukemia. If you’re interested in Afro Reggae (the group he was a part of), check out Favela Rising

sameatschildren:

Hi guys I’m obsessed with this shit lately because I don’t want anyone to have unhappy, unsupported boobs like I did. Even if you think your boobs and bras are fine, try it. It will make a big difference in comfort, support, and shape, even if you have small boobs or big…

I’ve never had a bra that fit right, but I always thought it was my fault. Hopefully this will change all that!

hepatitisbey:

I don’t want to learn in a classroom anymore. I want to travel and talk to people and learn that way. I want to learn as I go, gathering knowledge and not being rigorously tested on it. I don’t want to lose passion in the things I like because of the worry of exams. I want to fuelled by snippets of knowledge I gain from people and be inquisitive. School has stolen my passion for the things I’m interested in and I hate it for that.

Bolded mine. I don’t know how I’m going to manage to finish this degree when all the testing and the rigorous rules end up taking the wonder away.  I am so tired.
