If you’re not interested in actually being a team member (You loser! Who said that? J/K! LOL! LYLAS!), you can simply donate to my team online at the Make It Right website using a credit card. Cha-ching! Easy as that.
I know funds are low for everyone and their mother these days though, which is why fundraising may be oh-so attractive. My first fundraising efforts? I’m in charge of a craft fair lunch stand this weekend and will be putting out a jar with the Make it Right logo (so they don’t think this is for my personal manicure/pedicure funds) on it and wearing my hat if it gets here in time. Questions? Find the girl with the Make it Right hat.
Three passions have governed my life:
The longings for love, the search for knowledge,
And unbearable pity for the suffering of [humankind].
Love brings ecstasy and relieves loneliness.
In the union of love I have seen
In a mystic miniature the prefiguring vision
Of the heavens that saints and poets have imagined.
With equal passion I have sought knowledge.
I have wished to understand the hearts of [people].
I have wished to know why the stars shine.
Love and knowledge led upwards to the heavens,
But always pity brought me back to earth;
Cries of pain reverberated in my heart
Of children in famine, of victims tortured
And of old people left helpless.
I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot,
And I too suffer.
This has been my life; I found it worth living.
