“Women should be respected as well! Generally speaking, men are held in great esteem in all parts of the world, so why shouldn’t women have their share? Soldiers and war heroes are honored and commemorated, explorers are granted immortal fame, martyrs are revered, but how many people look upon women too as soldiers?…Women, who struggle and suffer pain to ensure the continuation of the human race, make much tougher and more courageous soldiers than all those big-mouthed freedom-fighting heroes put together!” ―  Anne Frank,   The Diary of A Young Girl: The Definitive Edition

It’s 12 :  07 PM on day 1647 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to    pray,  read Ezekiel 7, publish my Disability of the Day feature, learn one new thing –A giraffe has the same number of neck vertebrae as a human (7) – watch the South Africa vs. Sri Lanka Cricket  World Cup match – exercise,  feed myself a peanut butter sandwich for breakfast, brush my teeth, promote my Educate Generations campaign– $2 435 raised so far I continue to be grateful :)–  continue watching the cricket – South Africa won we are in the semi-finals I’m SO HAPPY!!!!!!!! 🙂 – and continue promoting the campaign – only $65 more to raise to reach goal.

Yesterday I finished reading  The Diary of A Young Girl: The Definitive Edition  by Anne Frank it’s an inspiring story of an ordinary teenage girl striving to be the best version of herself while she and seven other people were hiding from the Nazis.
