for i am put together with stardust...: September 2009

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.

thank you, everyone, for loving me.
the encouragement, especially in the last few hours, has been amazing.
i feel like i have been going kind of blindly in a few areas of my life where most of my peers don't travel (nor should it be normal that they do).

thank you for saying i'm okay at it.
