6 Billion Others: Be Careful, You Might Get Addicted.

6 billion others is a project that was put together by a man named Yann Arthrus-Bertrand and some of his colleagues. Here is a short excerpt from the introduction to the website:

"5,000 interviews were filmed in 75 countries by 6 directors who went in search of the Others. From a Brazilian fisherman to a Chinese shopkeeper, from a German performer to an Afghan farmer, all answered the same questions about their fears, dreams, ordeals, hopes:

What have you learnt from your parents? What do you want to pass on to your children? What difficult circumstances have you been through? What does love mean to you?

Forty or so questions that help us to find out what separates and what unites us. These portraits of humanity today are accessible on this website."

I was introduced to the website 6 billion others working at the MTC. As teachers, we use these interviews to help missionaries look into the lives of people from varying circumstances so that they can learn to focus on individuals' needs, concerns, and challenges and help them to come unto Christ through the restored gospel.

I love learning about people and this site is an incredible look into thousands of lives.

Here is the link. But be careful. You might get addicted.
