Human rights —- that means ALL humans, right? Isn’t this child a human as well? Why is this even an issue and why are you focusing on this poor little boy because of his hair? Really? There must be more important issues in the UK than a little boy’s hair, especially the fact that he wants to keep it long?! How petty does an education system have to be that they have no greater issues in their school system to address than a child’s hair style? That is shameful, discriminating, and just plain mean! In this former teachers opinion, I believe it is time that the administration gets schooled about human rights, the year we are living in, and how many other issues that they SHOULD be addressing instead, and leave him alone!

Brave boy got nasty comments for his "long hair"... but wait till you see this brave champ today.

I doubt if any of us willl ever forget what happened on 9/11. Where we were, who we were with, what we were doing…. It was a terrible day for our nation and so very many families that lost loved ones, both physically gone, and psychologically gone. Too many times we forget the survivors, rescue workers, those who feel they “should have been there” for one reason or another, those that feel guilty because they weren’t quite in the buildings ( or on the plane on time, or couldn’t get to work at the station). The feelings of guilt and inadequacies they may have can be just as bad as if they had died that day as well. So please, don’t forget to give them comfort and especially today, if you can, perhaps just reach out and talk to them, don’t text, because some days another person’s voice may be the only thing that saves you. Right?

Be blessed, be kind, and please remember that just because someone bears the same color of skin, wears the same traditional style of clothing, or practices the same religion, does not make them guilty! It does not make them one of the enemy! Do not harm anyone because of what you feel, or what has happened to our nation in the past. Get the facts, listen to those who are truly in the positions to tell us what is going on and how you can help. And today, lock away weapons and anger, rather keep your focus on those who need your compassion, love, a shoulder, or just your presence, your voice, your thoughts.

And above everything, thank you for your service, your efforts, and your losses. You are in my thoughts and in my heart.
