Every race is beautiful and every culture is poetry.
When one maintains their ignorance with a racial fortress,
they are depriving themselves of a beautiful world.

Faith
"Faith is like a redwood tree
Which starts out small
But with time
Becomes deep rooted
And with a strong Foundation,
Reaching to the Heavens,
Becomes a sign of Strength for all to see."

"I am important"
"I am Important.."
Look into the mirror, say it and mean it..
Not
"I am more important than.."
"I would be more important if.."
or
"But I am not as important as.."
Realize that your existence is not by accident;
And nothing in life is by happenstance..

Center of the Universe Syndrome
Center of the Universe Syndrome. We all have it, but there are some who make it their way of life. You see it everywhere. From the guy that cut you off in traffic to the angry soccer mom speeding down the highway trying to get her little ducklings to school before the bell rings, it's not hard to catch the very contagious CUS.
You may not feel it at first, it may take a few more infected people to get you to start thinking, "What about me?" Then it gets to, "Don't they understand, I'm going to be late!"
...Oh well, no time for explanations, you'll just have to cut that poor slowpoke in the next lane off. You're very careful, I know.. Anyways, there's no harm done, right?
However, it can endanger or kill someone...
January 20th,2007, my cousin was killed in an automobile accident by a person with Center of the Universe Syndrome. The guy that killed him was driving his truck down a 2 lane highway when he decided to get on the opposing lane to pass up the cars in front of him. What that guy didn't know was that there was a slope and he couldn't see the oncoming traffic ahead. He collided head on into a small sedan with a mother and adult daughter inside, the impact killed the mother.
That car flew backward into my cousin's car. The impact killed him and his stepdaughter instantly, leaving behind his fiance and (at the time) infant daughter.
This could've been prevented by just being selfless and thinking of the consequences. Nobody wants that on their conscience.
Remember~ there is more to life than just you.
