Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,   Volume II Chapter 14 - Of Writing I took solace from the fact that St. Augustine started to write the City of God at the age of 59! UN News Sources - UN Chronicle, United Nations News Service , UN Wire News Archive References: Earth Charter, Universal Declaration of Human Rights Rights of: Children, Women, Indigenous People To Be Written: Rights of Nature, Birds, Animals, Fish, etc. Every accomplishment starts with the decision to try. --Unknown Fact of the Day: From the age of 6, Susan Lieu was a powerhouse, answering the phone and removing customers' nail polish at her family's Bay Area nail salon. When she was 12, her world came crashing down when her mother, who had survived a harrowing escape from Vietnam years earlier, died unexpectedly of surgical complications. The experience took much from Lieu, but gave her something that sustains her to this day. After her mother's seemingly senseless death, Lieu said, "I was determined to have a purpose." Since then, the Oakland, CA resident has earned a bachelor's degree from Harvard, supported sustainable farming methods in Vietnam, worked with an AIDS project in an African refugee camp, and started a successful chocolate business. All in the span of a quarter-century! [ more ] Submitted by: Diane Nilan Books recommended by Robert are here. Other newsletters by GMW's editor can be viewed and subscribed to here.
