quotes from the book I'm Ok -- Your Ok

Giving and sharing are spontaneous expressions of joy.

Slums and ghettos are not going to disappear in society unless slums and ghettos disappear from the hearts of people.

If we do not respond to reason, our responses will more and more be dominated by fear.

We can hate evil so much that we forget to love good.  And there is much that is good.

I am important and you are important.  If I devalue you, I devalue myself.

"I am like that" does not help anything.  "I can be different" does.

The problems of the world essentially are the problems of individuals.  If individuals can change, then the course of the world can change.  This is a hope worth sustaining.

Hi,
I really like your journal. I especially like that you have animated graphics in different places other than the journal format and I can't find any directions. AOL doesn't answer email about this either. How do you do this? My animated graphics don't animate using the regular "Add Pictures". I would apprecitate your guidance. Thank you.
