Besides, when it came to being colorful...we invisible kids learned to carry our colors on the inside

It would have been like 'Wow!' ... I've always wanted to see this place on a night like that.

Character is not something one wears on their sleeve, shoulder or badge on their chest. It resides in the core of ones being and his displayed by actions and words.

In order for the light to shine so brightly, the darkness must be present.

There were once two sisters
who were not afriad of the dark
because the dark was full of the other's voice
across the room,
because even when the night was thick
and starless
they walked home together from the river
seeing who could last the longest
without turning on her flashlight,
not afraid
because sometimes in the pitch of night
they'd lie on their backs
in the middle of the path
and look up until the stars came back
and when they did,
they'd reach their arms up to touch them
and did.
