Perspective
"Reading the newspaper one morning, I saw this picture of birds on the electric wires. I cut out the photo and decided to make a song, using the exact location of the birds as notes. I was just curious to hear what melody the birds were creating."

Something To Ponder
So I have not fully researched this but have been poking my nose around a little in it. Were the Spartans black? Some people believe so.
I recently went see the new sequel to 300 and as I was watching it I couldn't help but wonder. Most movies here in America change history by showing white characters on the big screen, why would this movie be any different?
I question everything now!
Also something internally tells me there were many women Spartan warrioresses however, I have found very little to support my intuition. Women are quite frequently left out of history as well!
Here are a few things to get the juices flowing :)

When Others Are Healed
When others are healed we share in the healing as well! Please take a look at this website, these journalists have risked their lives to expose the injustices to their people of Eritrea.
It is sometimes easy to report, express yourself and write about things when there is no risk of your life or comfort involved but these people risk it all to help their people and inform the rest of the world!
