We have to understand what our enemy does not-- that every human life is sacred, not just those we approve of, or those we can relate to, but all lives.

Liberty Relearned, Year One
Some people are blessed with skills of oratory, some are natural leaders, and some others have charisma. I was blessed with a certain skill in writing and design.
