Show and Tell


This morning I feel like telling some other people's stories, or letting them tell us themselves.

Ernest Gagnon-

If you haven't heard about Ernest Gagnon yet, it is just a matter of time. For the record, I wouldn't race cyclocross if my life depended on it, or maybe I would?

And then there is this girl, Malala Yousufzai-- 14 year-old blogger from the Swat Valley in Pakistan. She was shot in the head by the Taliban for writing about how much she liked school and bright-colored clothing. Two other little girls were also shot in the attack.



Two people telling their stories, both fighting for their lives.

This blog thing is potent.

Once he becomes a threat they will turn on him like a pack of dingos.

Saw both of these within the past day or so, both inspiring: be better now and look toward the future with purpose.
