letter to my daughter.

my new goal, as of yesterday, is to read all of Maya Angelou's books.
if you haven't heard of this woman, i pity you.
she is one of the most amazing writer's i've come across, and has such a beautiful soul.

i bought "Letter to my Daughter" yesterday, and wanted to share a passage that moved me-

"You may not control all of the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them. Try to be a rainbow in someone's cloud. Do not complain. Make every effort to change things you do not like. If you cannot make a change, change the way you have been thinking. You might find a new solution.."
