Power and control are more dangerous than any weapons.
Be careful of what we say or do on this earth as every word and every action has a return.
Tears are the words that the heart could not express, silent truths the eyes do confess.
I write to taste life twice; to savour the flavour of sweet times gone by, or spit out the bitterness before it multiplies.

Perception is the lens through which we interpret experiences,and when we change the lens we change how we experience.
If we have touched another’s life with our action and through our words then we have lived.
We all have the greatest potential. Life is about finding it, embracing it and then learning to be with it in the world without fear of prejudice or judgment.
