All Of Us Are Survivors,

As Long As One Keeps Searching, The Answers Will Come.

I Wasn't Popular In School, I Was Mexican, I Was All These Inappropriate Things. I Started Playing The Ukulele And Taking It To School, And I Realized People Liked Listening To It. I Would Play It To Comfort Myself At Home, And I'd Play Rhythm And Blues Songs That Had Four Chords. That's How It Started.

Sometimes I Think That It Is Enough To Say That If We Don't Sit Down And Shut Up Once In A While We'll Lose Our Minds Even Earlier Than We Had Expected. Noise Is An Imposition On Sanity, And We Live In Very Noisy Times.

We Were Raised With That Discussion About Violence And Non-violence, And We All Pretty Much Came Up On The Side Of Non-violence. That Became My Foundation With Politics And My Livelihood.

I Think The Question That Nobody Wanted To Deal With Is The Question They're Posing: Did My Kid Die In Vain? Because The Answer Is Too Awful.
