Being fearless means busting down those walls of fear and being who you are, not who someone else thinks you are. People like to put others in a box and tell them what they can and cannot do or who they can and cannot be. No one can tell you who you are and what you are made of, only you yourself know what you are made of, and only you yourself can do the work to become who you want to be.”

- Mariska Hargitay

(one of my favorite actresses)

A good picture is equivalent to a good deed. - Vincent Van Gogh, Dutch post-Impressionist painter (Born: March 30, 1853; Died: July 29, 1890; I don't own this quote whatsoever)

Let us strive for the impossible. The great achievements throughout history have been the conquest of what seemed the impossible. -Charlie Chaplin, actor (April 16, 1889, to December 25, 1977, I don't own this quote whatsoever)

For Holocaust Remembrance Day

I wouldn't put anything up on FB this year about it. FB considered it "Racist" last year and no longer recommends our page.

No, it wasn't because of that.

It was because I put up a pic with the Axis Powers (the bad guys of World War II, with pics of flags of their respective countries, without giving a historical explanation of it (even though I put up lots of "good" and
and "bad" historical events, with no problems whatsoever) and I got that pic from another Facebook page, to begin with; just like I do with all the other pics of historical events, world cultures, food, etc. ).

Holocaust Remembrance Day, is a way to remember all the innocent lives that were lost at that time, and the impact that it still has today.

Today is William Shakespeare's Birthday in 1564 and also the same day as his death in 1616...Here's a good quote I pick out from him (don't worry I don't own his quote whatsoever)

Be not afraid of greatness: some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.

 

[Invader]

All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible.
T. E. Lawrence
