This incredible story explains how a single photograph can change the lives of two people. John Carrey, an American photographer, takes unique photos while traveling around the world and sells them in other countries or shares them on websites.

This incredible story occurred to him approximately 20 years ago while traveling through Africa and visiting one of the poorest countries in Somalia. When he was walking around the neighborhood, photographing everything that piqued his interest, he noticed a girl sitting on the floor and photographed her.

The girl piqued his interest and seduced him with her unique and beautiful appearance. Because he liked the girl, John decided to give the photo to her parents. People told him that the little girl had been living alone for a long time and that no one had seen mom and dad in a long time, but he was never able to find her parents.

Carrie was so saddened and moved by this that he resolved to adopt the girl at any cost. He wasn’t even concerned about the difficulties of the lengthy paperwork. Nonetheless, John was able to not only bring the girl to the United States, but also to save the child from hunger and provide her with a happy life. Twenty years have passed since then. The girl grew up to be a true beauty.
