Friday, May 08, 2009 ( 5:38 PM ) shut up christine i like this. Education has allowed me to understand and to transform my world. Every individual deserves this opportunity. Solutions to global problems such as extreme poverty and sustainable development require the creative participation of each of the world’s citizens. Those of us who have received a basic education have the moral obligation to reciprocate by sharing our own knowledge with others, and by demanding that our governments take steps to ensure that every child—regardless of his or her country—is empowered with knowledge to change the world. -Christina Holden, one.org in other news i have an invisible HOORAY! stamped on my forehead. i've been denying it for ages, but i will finally admit to the universe that i am madly in love. there i said it. he doesn't have to know and i don't plan on telling him. the nice thing is that i go to sleep smiling; i wake up smiling; and i'm smiling all day. he doesn't need to know, its not important. my cheeks hurt #

First of all: I'm sorry I haven't commented lately. No excuses. Just haven't.

The quote is great, not as good as the love but still great because it's an admirable thing AND suits you so well. You walk the walk, as they say. A very cool thing to do, and much more thoughtful and difficult than the simplicity of that phrase suggests. The love... I'm in that almost forgotten boat myself and you put the feeling so wonderfully. In my case it's been a year this weekend and it's been the best year of my life (at 42!?!?!?!) and I don't even begin to know how good it will be but I know what it's like to wake up smiling, 500 miles away. The distance thing is on the to-fix list, but for now it's nice to know that other people besides Vin and I love. Not that I really doubted it but it makes me smile. Keep rocking on, Christine! |
