I am Writing this Journal as a little note of my day, something wonderful truly happened!

We had A motivational speaker by the name of Reggie Dabbs come to our school and well, motivate us. he was a foster child, but he was such a funny person and I Just Loved what he had to say, but there was one thing that inspired me more then anything else, and it was one little story:

He went to school one day, and the teacher came in clapping, and he asked, why are u clapping, and she said cause they were doing poetry, and he frowned, so he wrote one, and the teacher didnt like it, so she sad he had to write one by monday the next week.

Monday Lunch Came, and he was still thinking, so he went to class early and wrote the first thing that came to his mind, which eventually went on to get an 'A' and up being read out to the entire class, because it was sooooo good, and it goes like this;


I Don't Need to Know Your Name to Feel Your Pain,
I Don't Need to Know Your Home to Know Your Shame,
If Somebody Loves me Just The Way I Was,
Then Somebody Loves You Just The Way You are.


Now I Dont Know about you, but this has to be One of The most Touching Things i Have ever heard, and I am not one For Poetry!
