Regardless of whom you pray to, during war our experiences as a community and as mothers are the same.

Women are the ones that bear the greatest burden. We are also the ones who nurture societies.

You cannot say you've achieved equality until EVERYONE is equal and has equal opportunities!

Men are the ones who often juggle back and forth for power. It is the women who bring humanity to the table - an understanding that beyond the jobs that men are fighting for, there are people out there really waiting for you to do something for life to go on. The only way all of this can happen effectively is if women are at the table as active participants, not as silent observers.

The world is upside down, it's going to take a lot of hands to turn it right side up.

The world is waiting to hear from you.

It is so difficult to do any work nonviolently if you don't have the constant awareness of someone who is greater than you are - someone greater who will not just fight for you but who is there to console you.
