There is a reason I'm passionate about fighting for what is right. Because this beauty exists and I want it to keep existing after the storm. If it was just weather all we would have to do is wait for a sunny day. But it's not. Resist.

I got a message each time, "Oops, this generation may not meet our policies.

This was scary to make public, but yes. I'm standing by it.

I've been reading again. The book is at the end of the video. I'm not a believer, haven't been for years, but when there's something good in the story, why would you pick that part to rewrite?

Oh, yeah. Money. Power. Ego. Greed.

This has always been a treasure... at least since 2007! If you haven't read it, grab the most recent edition, which I think was 2019.

This copy is a first edition, published in 1984. When she signed it, she said, "The new edition is better." But this one is a gem.
