Their Own Words - An Introduction
Their Own Words – An Introduction I recently found a quote on the Facebook page of a friend and fellow author which I felt should definitely be shared. Some of you may have seen this already, but for those who haven’t I think you will agree that it is very relevant in today’s world.

Kathy Griffin
I finally came across a couple of news items I can justify typing about; somewhat. Neither of them interest me a whole lot. Laurel Hubbard of New Zealand appears to be the less newsworthy of the two; she is a transgender power lifter, if I understand correctly. I don't think you'd mistake her for being exceptionally photogenic; moreover she is not doing a great deal as an Olympian. Maybe were she non binary things would be slightly different. Still, give credit where it is due; she is perhaps breaking ground. A prevailing opinion seems to be that in non contact sports this type of athlete cannot risk injuring anyone but herself and ought to be allowed to compete.

He stood up for us
Someone wrote a story about the face of courage. The girl who withdrew from the Olympics because of mental health issues. I have a person that I respected and admired. He accepted his diagnosis with grace, and it's ugly truth with dignity and respect. In December 1984, a young boy from Kokomo, Indiana. He was a boy of just thirteen and he got sick, with a bad bloody nose. His mother took no chances as Ryan was a hemophiliac and rushed her boy to the hospital. They ran some test and it came back that Ryan had contracted AIDS from a blood transfusion. The Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program was named for a courageous young man named Ryan White who was diagnosed with AIDS following a blood transfusion in December 1984. Ryan White was diagnosed at age 13 while living in Kokomo, Indiana and was given six months to live. When Ryan White tried to return to school, he fought AIDS-related discrimination in his Indiana community. Along with his mother Jeanne White Ginder, Ryan White rallied for his right to attend school - gaining national attention - and became the face of public education about his disease. Surprising his doctors, Ryan White lived five years longer than predicted. He died in April 1990, one month before his high school graduation and only months before Congress passed the legislation bearing his name in August 1990 - the Ryan White Comprehensive AIDS Resources Emergency (CARE) Act.

Story of the Woulfe
I have been called quite “unconventional”. I am the black sheep of the family so to speak. I am the only California born and raised from a family that comes solely from Texas and the Southern states as well as Pennsylvania apparently. But me? Well I would probably be shunned if I were to ever go where my blood family is. But that’s okay with me. Your real family is truly chosen right? Anyway. It took ALOT to get to where I am now. I’ll start off with this. I’m a Pansexual Transgender Man. For those of you that may not know what that means, it means I was born biologically female, but as I grew up I realized I was not, despite my efforts to conform. And being Pansexual means I do not care what’s in your pants, it’s your soul, your aura, that attracts me.

Love is lie
StartThese are the exact words Avantika says always. She is a very silly, crazy, smart, and intelligent girl (all at once because of mood swings). She stopped believing in love after his beloved Dadaji's death which occurred when she was in 12th and one more reason was temporary relations being created now n then which was not in her ethics. She doesn't believe in time pass and one more reason for being a book worm and not interested in guys

Going to urinals - ain't that great?
In the Royal Navy, I was once “reliably told”, there are two types of men: “Men who piss down sinks and liars!” While I have never been in the Royal Navy, I believe I belong in the first group. Hence the reason for exploring why do men “piss down sinks” and why the urinal's design needs updating.
