“So rock bottom became the solid foundation in which I rebuild my life. You might never fail on the scale I did, but some failure in life is inevitable. It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously you might as well not lived at all. In which case you fail by default.”
— J.K. Rowling (via yogachocolatelove)
“Every morning is a fresh beginning. Every day is the world made new. Today is a new day. Today is my world made new. I have lived all my life up to this moment, to come to this day. This moment—this day—is as good as any moment in all eternity. I shall make of this day—each moment of this day—a heaven on earth. This is my day of opportunity.”
— Dan Custer (via yogachocolatelove)

I hope her compassion is fostered in her home, school and life. Rather than snuffed out by a society that, by and large, views animals as disposable commodities.
What a brave girl. Go forth and share your compassion.

Holy crap this kid has more sense than most people. And she sounds extremely intelligent. (If it’s real, of course.)

How much does Saudi Arabia hate women? So much so that 15 girls died in a school fire in Mecca in 2002, after “morality police” barred them from fleeing the burning building — and kept firefighters from rescuing them — because the girls were not wearing headscarves and cloaks required in public. And nothing happened. No one was put on trial. Parents were silenced.
