I think that it touched me so deep because I know this feeling, I've breathed those words--we can't all go into the streets to protest and save the world, one march at a time... some of us have to do what is write in front of us, because it can't wait... they can't wait.Magaly Guerrerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18295455026184103230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3313195297275159246.post-46116109365889818172017-03-12T03:11:12.711+11:002017-03-12T03:11:12.711+11:00Thank you for sharing this is with us.
