There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and will be lost. Martha Graham
About This Quote

The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall. - Nelson Mandela We all have something unique to give the world. If the world is to be a better place, each of us must make sure it knows our names. The voice of one person who has lived their truth will bring about change in this world.

It’s true that change can be slow, but it is not impossible. We are all different, but that does not mean that we cannot come together to make a better place for one another. Though it may take some time, the world will get better.
