Wisdom and Grace

By Gerald Britt
December 8, 2009

There are a few people on this earth who exhaust the superlatives we try and use to explain how wonderful they are.

Maya Angelou is such a person.

This clip is an introduction of her book, Letter to My Daughter. Her wisdom, her eloquence, her grace and charm are just breathtaking. I just wanted to share this with you.

We may not have her with us much longer, but what a treasure we have among us while she is still here!

Thanks for shedding light on this great work of literature. She is inspiring, motivational, and an intelligent woman. She was the reason I started writing when I was younger. I am eager to read more of this book! :)

Great Video, by the way!

"You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them. Try to be a rainbow in someone's cloud. Do not complain. Make every effort to change things you do not like. If you cannot make a change, change the way you have been thinking. You might find a new solution."

Maya Angelou has always been one of my heroes. I have all of her books. She's one of a kind.
