I don't
work in normal situations. I regard myself as a disaster
tourist. You know, I go to countries where nobody wants to go
to so you have to be mad to be able to work with me. It
wasn't because of school that I decided what I want to do. It was
because of a person, Dr haferji, he would come home and treat
everybody with such respect at a very young age, I said, I will be
a doctor because of this man,
the spiritual teacher, looked me in the eye and said, My son, you
will form an organization. The name will be wakul Waqf, een gift
of the givers. You will serve all people of all races, you will
serve them unconditionally.
Dr Suleman is one of the nicest people you'll ever meet. His life
was just giving. So I wanted to shoot a portrait of Dr Sullivan
holding this gift, looking into a place of absolute desolation, if
we build a three story building gospel in the middle of a war

child's hand, the child took its own hand, small hand, and rubbed
my face like this and gave a big smile. It was very touching.
All these communities that I see, they receive you with open arms,
and they say it doesn't matter if you bring something or you don't
bring something. What matters to us is the fact that you thought
about us,
the greatest thing South Africa has taught me is the spirit of
love. You know, we've come from a turbulent past, but in spite of
that, I've noticed the togetherness between different
people.
Can we get some rubble that side?
Don't throw it act. Dr Sullivan, can I just covered me on all my
missions. I've saved you
all this trouble. A gift represents human kindness. Now a
truer word was spoken with Dr Sullivan. He'll give a gift
without expecting anything back, and I love the contrast between
this beaming man and this gift, and he brings them to the darkest
places imaginable.
Never put a person who's down into the ground. Carry them and pick
them up. And whatever you do is done through you and not by you.
And don't ever forget that you
