The Call of Hope

Status: Not so Fabulous

When I take inventory over my life, its easy to see in the past where I should have made certain sacrifieces, and other times I probably should have been more out going.

I've never looked at myself as anyone special... much less a good writing or speller. I have 2 hands like everyone else, and with those, I have managed to arrange my stars from their orginal orientation - something anyone can do, given the time and effort.



I will be attending the Lobby Days organized by NCTE in Washington DC April 26th to 28th. Many people form around the country will be meeting there to help make the big push for ENDA, and other issues... but mostly ENDA.

The "Employment Non-Discrimination Act., or ENDA, is a proposed piece of legislation that helps to protect the jobs and rights of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgendered American's.

To tell you the truth, I can't really aford to go right now to DC. I'm facing a bankruptcy, and my spouse is out of work. Still, the cause and need are too great to let that stand in my way... so I have put the matter into fates hands and I will just not worry about it and go, and do what needs to be done.

Enough talking about our rights... Enough taking bows for ourselves... Ladies and gentlemen, its time we stand together... and lets not just nod and say, yes... get up off your chair and DO something - nothing can change unless we all set our troubles aside for a few days, and give voice to a call that has been sent out.

How many times in your life have you been given the chance to stand and be counted - among those who madea difference for the many?

Yes, a call has been sent out to all of us... and how will you be remembered answering that call?

Yes, we are all in trouble right now... the market is bad, housing and banking sectors have failed... but in the darkness of all this calamity, a light shines with all of us at this moment... that light is hope, and it shines now in our darkest hours. We must now harness this light together and illuminate our future... a future of Equility, for all.

Answer the call of Hope...

Stand and be counted - Give Voice
