Hits hard doesn't it ?

Giving someone a hug can make a big difference to a person in need of support and comfort. And these tender pictures of Pope Francis taking time to embrace a man with tumours all over his body were broadcast around the world. The man suffers from a rare condition called neurofibromatosis that has left him covered in neuronal tumours, including growths on his face. The pontiff stopped to hug, kiss and bless him in St Peter's Square in Rome.

Here's a heart surgeon after a 23 hour long successful transplant operation. Notice the nurse passed out in the corner. Notice the pure exhaustion on his face. Realize how tirelessly this man worked to save a life, and as long as people like him are around, we can rest assured for our future. (The man in the picture is Dr. Zbigniew Religa).

Eyes that have seen a nuclear blast

These eyes have seen a nuclear blast and it’s been the last thing they’ve seen. After the image of that bright flash of light, there has been nothing. (flash of light "Brighter than a thousand suns" )

Oh my!... very heart touching pictures, Churchill was such a handsome lad, that nuclear weapon is something else!... I always go through soul searching any time i view photos such as this.

Rare photo of slave children found

A testament to a dark part of American history. A 150-year-old photo found in a North Carolina attic shows a young black child named John, barefoot and wearing ragged clothes. Art historians believe it's an extremely rare Civil War-era photograph of children who were slaves at the time. It was accompanied by a document detailing the sale of a John for $1,150.

Great Pictures OP. The story in pics #12, #13is amazing. And the overall
theme is uplifting and wonderful - humans can be such
caring and beautiful and compassionate creatures. When we
want to be.

hmmm. in case

really enlightening, especially the kkk salute picture
