This picture is taken in the Rift Valley province of Kenya,where kids are used to save their parents from duties that are way above their means,the kid is just but one among those who do heavy duties just to keep them moving,more over most of this kids in the countryside don't go to school apart from those whose parent want their kids to be like so and so who had gone through school and has some influence in the community.However the kids too enjoy whatever duty that is assigned to them,they take it with joy and zeal like an hungry lion that sees a portion of a hunt left out in the nature,you know the zeal it will grab it?thats how the duties at home e.g walking five kilometers to and from the nearest market where vegetables and food stuff are found easily and no wonder each and every athlete from Kenya comes from the Rift valley region you may say, also going down deep in the dry area to look for wood for firewood and taking care of the livestock.I call them the last Matyrs!
