YOU are special!  You are the only one like you that has
ever been or will be. There will never be another like
you, for God made you to be unique.  So let no one tell
you who or what you must be. Just be the best you that
you can be.



You ARE special!  You are the only one exactly like you,
so be the best of who you are.  Let no one try to tell
you who you are or dictate to you how you should act.
Just be who you are.



You are SPECIAL!  There is only one like you, and God
loves you just the way you are.  For you are the only
one with your particular set of genetics and talents.

DREAMS

Dr. Martin Luther King had a dream. Well, I too have a dream. Even
though I'm just a scribe, noticing and reacting to current events, I
can dream. I can dream that maybe one day it won't matter to anyone
who a person loves or marries. I can dream that one day it won't matter
whether a person is transexual or asexual. I can dream that just maybe
none of this will matter at all, and ALL of God's children will finally
be free and be able to live side by side without any kind of fear. I
can dream that black, white, asian, hetreosexual, GLBT, asexual and
all other people will live side by side and no one will be attacked or
killed just because they are "different." I too can dream big dreams.

Marguerite Curtis: God is Talking:








Say to all the people for me; you are my beloved children, I created you the
way that you are, let no one tell you any different.  I have always known
you, and I do not, will not turn any away.  So come to Me, and dwell with
Me, for no matter what anybody says, I love you.  Come now, beloved!

The Pink Triangle

Marguerite Curtis


The Nazis had the Jews wearing a yellow star of David.  Other groups also had to wear symbols to show who they were.  For example:



The Pink Triangle



I wore a pink triangle

Because I was too different

From the rest of the world.



I wore a pink triangle

In a concentration camp

Because of who I was.



I wore a pink triangle

And died very painfully

Because of hate and fear.



I wore a pink triangle

Just simply because

I was gay.



I found a card I was given years ago.  Other colors:

Black for Anti-Socials
Blue for Emigrants
Brown for Gypsies
Green for Criminals
Purple for Jehovah's Witnesses
Red for Politicals

A start

Starting this new thing for me.  There will be poetry and comments about what I see happening in this world of ours.  For today, there is the loss to our world of Dr Maya Angelou, a great poet and a great woman who tred to show us how to live good lives.  She will be missed.
