i am stronger than a sepik crocodile, more cunning than gideon's three hundred, more powerful than david's five stones, brighter than the thunderbolts of zeus. i can change lives, resolve injustice, reverse poverty, inspire hearts and minds, connect kindred souls. i can make laughter and inspire singing, persuade lovers to find each other, strangers to make friends, and enemies to make peace. i can move mountains. ---Patricia Raybon, My First White Friend---

i know not where from which this sadness comes, yet it will not conquer me: the light of God's face that shines upon me will save and restore my joy.
let's talk soon, sister.
