STILL I RISE

Excerpts from STILL I RISE

...You may write me down in history
With your bitter, twisted lies,
You may trod me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I'll rise.

You may shoot me with your words,
You may cut me with your eyes,
You may kill me with your hatefulness,
But still, like air, I'll rise...

-MAYA ANGELOU



REFLECTIONS: Do not judge or ever partake in committing evil or purposely causing pain to anyone if you have only allow yourself to hear a one sided story... There is ALWAYS two sides to a story. Unfortunately there is usually a side that is left unheard. The verdict gets read, the sentence gets passed, the damage is done and the pain everlasting.
Is sad but true...
