Do not forget why you're attending these conferences, who you're doing this for. We are your own children. You are deciding what kind of world we are growing up in. Parents should be able to comfort their children by saying, "Everything's going to be all right," "It's not the end of the world," and "We're doing the best we can."
But I don't think you can say that to us anymore. Are we even on your list of priorities? My father always says, "You are what you do, not what you say."
Well, what you do makes me cry at night. You grown-ups say you love us. I challenge you: Please make your actions reflect your words.
—“The Girl Who Silenced the World for Five Minutes,”
Severn Cullis-Suzuki

Excerpt from jane eyre charlotte bronte 2 i was glad of it: i never liked long walks, especially on chilly afternoons: dreadful to me was the coming home in the raw twilight, with nipped fingers and toes, and a heart saddened by the chidings of bessie, the nurse, and humbled by the consciousness of my physical inferiority to eliza, john, and georgiana reed.
