13 IMAGES THAT SPEAK TO PARIS AND THE WORLD

What do you say in a moment like this?  In case you've also been in a quandary grasping for words to say in light of our world's current events,  here's a collection of photos that SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES.  I'm posting them with the hope that at least one of them may speak to you as well.  Though we're thousands of miles away this was a small way I thought we could help spread love around our world, albeit digitally. These are a compilation of photos I've adjusted or put together from things I've found, though I do not claim ownership of them, as the quoted authors & artists are listed on each.  The updikeupdates watermark is simply there so that others may be able to more easily grab the higher resolution copies right here to share them, for as we all know copies of copies end up becoming contorted and hard to read. :)  Love to you all.  ❤️
