" How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single
moment before starting to improve  the world" -Anne Frank

Hidden in the pages were those powerful, timeless ,survived words I read at the age of 11 in 1969.  It was  rally cry of a generation across many cultures.It was for me a defining read an awakening in my own formation to the world outside my small town.

Here we are in 2008 with the word "Change" we continue to hear as the world is still battling prejudice,hatred, human rights. abuse of power, greed,terrorism poverty, cultural indifference to name a few.

On the advent of Anne Frank's 80th birthday in 2009,I wanted to create a reminder of these words
and the young,innocent girl who was the author of that ideal. That we all hold onto the light of hope that change will come if we work towards it. It starts with us with understanding and embracing tolerance of our differences as we are all connected to the Tree of Life.
