I remember wondering what this child was praying for as she offered incense to a local god. On this #WorldChildrensDay, I ask: Are we comfortable leaving it up to a god to help her and millions more like her? Or do we feel compelled to take action ourselves?

Searching for Hong Kong's Soul 尋覓香港嘅靈魂

Hong Kong's soul rests far from the casual eye, modestly shrouded and demurely confident, or maybe just unwilling to fight for the limelight. Hidden. So well concealed, in fact, that most visitors miss it. I almost did.
