Most days, to get the muse started, I go through what I have posted on NMK for this date during the past almost eight years. In many ways the blog is a journal of my interests — movies, books, what not — as well as current events, and of course The Sweeties. Every once in awhile a post catches more than passing interest and holds me. This is one of those — from five years ago today.
Someone else’s Sweeties
I know I’m just a bleeding heart liberal old grandpa, but this Reuters photo of Afghan children taking a break from looking for things to recycle in Kabul, taken today, breaks my heart.

You, Newmexiken, are my favorite daily blog to review, due to your posted photos, comments, and the combination of the two like this. News and photos without true feelings, comments and compassion can do little. Knowing that someone else takes notice and shares the same feelings about those photos and stories means everything. love your blog, hope you keep it up
