Amidst all the horror taking place in Libya at the moment, including the destruction of sacred places, something beautiful is happening. Amidst all the hypocrisy, and rubble and extremism, a small group of Libyan men and women, young and old are choosing to say Enough. We are different. We are not the status quo. We represent the possibility of something better.
Libyan.
Muslim.
Self- Certified.
Enough Silence. Take A Stand. Challenge the Ignorance around you. Martyrs already did.
Sincerely,
People with Conscience

But without deeper reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people — first of all for those upon whose smiles and well-being our own happiness is wholly dependent, and then for the many, unknown to us, to whose destinies we are bound by the ties of sympathy. A hundred times every day I remind myself that my inner and outer life are based on the labors of other men, living and dead, and that I must exert myself in order to give in the same measure as I have received and am still receiving.
