"I want the people who experience my work to have the opportunity to gaze into the eyes of the other and find there a familiarity. I want to welcome them into the exploration of our mysterious lives with a spirit of curiosity, astonishment, and hope."
—Lisa Kristine : International Humanitarian Photographer and Change Maker

Through The Color of Poverty, Linda Ruth Paskell seeks to capture the unique dignity of the least fortunate members of society through the loving lens of her camera without masking their pain. These photographs are in honor of all the warriors living in poverty and the third world artists who selflessly and joyfully use their creative gifts as a means of providing a sustainable income, health care, and education for their families.

I Saw What I Saw
Music & Lyrics by: Sara Groves
I saw what I saw and I can't forget it
I heard what I heard and I can't go back
I know what I know and I can't deny it
Something on the road
Cut me to the soul
Your pain has changed me
Your dream inspires
Your face a memory
Your hope a fire
Your courage asks me what I'm afraid of
And what I know of love
We've done what we've done and we can't erase it
We are what we are and it's more than enough
We have what we have but it's no substitution
Your pain has changed me
Your dream inspires
Your face a memory
Your hope a fire
Your courage asks me what I'm made of
And what I know of love
Something on the road
Cut me to the soul
I say what I say with no hesitation
I have what I have and I'm giving it up
I do what I do with deep conviction
Something on the road, cut me to the soul
Your pain has changed me
Ooohhh...
Your dreams inspire
Ooohhh...
Your face a memory
Ooohhh...
Your hope a fire
Ooohhh...
Your pain has changed me
Your dream inspires
Your face a memory
Your hope a fire
Your courage asks me what I am afraid of
Your courage asks me what I am made of
Your courage asks me what I am afraid of
And what I know of God,
And what I know of God.
