The New Colossus




By Emma Lazarus, 1883



Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,

With conquering limbs astride from land to land;

Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand

A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame

Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name

Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand

Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command

The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.

"Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she

With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,

Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,

The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.

Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,

I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"



Why are we called the land of the free we're putting up walls keeping people who want to get some where in life out can you tell me why ? cause i can't understand....

¡Qué gran inspiración

a pesar de todo se aprende a acercarse. Día a día damos un paso en un momento sin saber cuál va a suceder mañana. lo largo del día no llorar lágrimas de tristeza sino de alegría becaues el Dios que servimos es mucho mayor.

My favorite queotes......

"No man who worships education has got the best out of education.... Without a gentle contempt for education no man's education is complete(G.K,Chesterton)."

"Leadership is based on a spiritual quality; the power to inspire, the power to inspire others to follow(Lombardi,Vince)."

"Let men tremble to win the hand of woman, unless they win along with it the utmost passion of her heart! Else it may be their miserable fortune, when some mightier touch than their own may have awakened all her sensibilities, to be reproached even for the calm content, the marble image of happiness, which they will have imposed upon her as the warm reality(Hawthorne,Nathaniel)."

"In a profound sense every man has two halves to his being; he is not one person so much as two persons trying to act in unison. I believe that in the heart of each human being there is something which I can only describe as a "child of darkness" who is equal and complementary to the more obvious "child of light."( Van der Post,Laurens)."

                                                                "If you want to be happy, be.(Tolstoy.Leo)."

"Some men know that a light touch of the tongue, running from a woman's toes to her ears, lingering in the softest way possible in various places in between, given often enough and sincerely enough, would add immeasurably to world peace(Williamson, Marianne) "A Woman's Worth"

                        " Lips that taste of tears, they say,

                                      Are the best for kissing

                                                   ( Parker,Dorothy)."

"When you're in love you never really know whether your elation comes from the qualities of the one you love, or if it attributes them to her; whether the light which surrounds her like a halo comes from you, from her, or from the meeting of your sparks(Clifford Barney,Natalie)"

"Whats up(San juan,Edgar,2010)."

"Perhaps all pleasure is only relief( Burroughs,William)."

**breast cancer**

I've seen people die,cry,look like their in pain I asked myself what if that was me? I don't think i would understand why. i would cry and die very slowly a long but short death being forced to cut one of my breast off.... GONE... As a child i never understood why my grandmother looked sicker and sicker everyday every moment in life she was in pain wakeing up late nights crying screaming ... I remeber it like it was yesterday she always prayed that she could see us all get older and in high school. she was waiting on me I was the baby as I hit my freshmen year the cancer hit her hard spreading through her body fast killing her life getting shorter. No time left. A week before her death i went on the cancer walk knowing it would make her the happiest person in the world. she died that next week leaving behind grandchildren, sons,daughters,and friends. this touched me to see how many people care and try to do something about this this gives me hope fo the next person.

There's Always Hope

Can you see it? that light in her it shines so bright so bright that you would never think would show. I mean look at her her life style. She's hurting bad her mom is strung out on drugs she never got to meet her father she move from house to house trying to cope with this life. You can never tell. Her favorite thing to say is "let your light so shine" as it reads from the bible. Never letting anything get her down. she said she's seeking something. Something being her love for Jesus Christ to be stornger than ever so she dont look at the negitive things just that light that peeks through the tunnel.

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL CREATION

Every morning at the same time a beautiful glow awakens me.

Somthing so beautiful the human mind could never think to create.

I awake every morning, to pray to its beauty another day.

"MY LOVE IS MANY COLORS I NEVER KNOW WHAT COLOR I WANT TO BE
JUST KNOW MY LOVE REACHES OUT TO EVERYONE"
