LadyElbereth's profile

People are asking me about the race problem. I know of no race problem. The great problem that confronts the American people today is a national problem. Whether this great nation of ours is great enough to live up to its own convictions, carry out its own declaration of independence, and execute the provisions of its own constitution (1883) Fredrick Douglas...... What we call the secret of happiness is no more a secret than our willingness to choose life. Leo Buscaglia...... Appreciation can make a day, even change a life, your willingness to put to words is all that is necessary. Margaret Cousines...... A garden is evidence of faith, it links us with all the misty figures of the past who also planted and were nourished by the fruits of their planting. Gladys Taber
