This is actually the closest thing I have to a holiday/end-of-the-year message for you all.

I don’t believe in New Year’s resolutions, unless you happen to want to change when a new year comes. So change, already. Right? 🙂

Here are some words to live by:

1. Did you mean it?

2. Can you defend it?

3. Did you say it with love?”

Here are some quotes:

“In a world that wants us to whisper, I choose to yell”

“When the world expects us to be silent, we choose to yell because getting uncomfortable can only guarantee our comfort.”

“People in systems count on our silence to keep us exactly where we are.”

“Fear has a very concrete power of keeping us from doing and saying the things that are our purpose.”

“In a world that wants us to whisper, I choose to Yell!”

“comfort is overrated”

“Bridges that aren’t based on truth will collapse.”

“Being yourself can be a revolutionary act.”

“I’m a professional troublemaker.”


But some dominos fall … then just lie there. 🙂

Being a domino is HARD. Being a domino with dystonia is even fucking harder.

Listening to this speech isn’t enough, is it? That’s why I’m sharing it.

“I’m not going to let fear rule my life.”

And she’s only thirty? So young! Brava!
