"Be as a bird perched on a frail branch that she feels bending beneath her, still she sings away all the same, knowing she has wings."
-Victor Hugo

Heroes
"Do one thing everyday that scares you."
Eleanor Roosevelt
"Time is on the side of the oppressed today, it's against the oppressor. Truth is on the side of the oppresed today, it's against the oppressor. You don't need anything else."
Malcolm X
"You must be the change you want to see in the world."
Gandhi
"For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone."
Audrey Hepburn
Excerpt for 'The Refugees'
We all came from refugees
Nobody simply just appeared,
Nobody's here without a struggle,
And why should we live in fear
Of the weather or the troubles?
We all came here from somewhere.
Benjamin Zephaniah
My younger brother, who I only see twice a month, once asked me to teach him the alphabet in sign language. After working hard all day, he had mastered it. My dad later told me that a new girl came to my brother's school and was deaf. It made him sad that she had no friends, so he wanted to reach out to her. He was only six. My baby brother GMH.
Today , I watched the news in Taiwan about the flood/hurricane crisis. When one guy heard that helicopters couldnt get to the villages in time to delivery much needed food , he rode his bike in the heavy rain for 10 miles to get his truck and delivered the goods himself in the heavy rain. The man is 80 years old. GMH
I was in line to get a sandwich and saying to my friend that I felt fat, having gained 10 pounds this summer because of a medical condition i'm getting surgery for soon. The man behind the counter, a very cute teenage guy, gave me my drink for free. When I asked him why, he replied that "he was a sucker for beautiful girls" and winked. He GMH
