    Death of an Angel

    You have surely heard about the tragic death of a
    brave young woman who was murdered in Iran
    just for peacefully protesting with her father
    on the streets of Teheran.

    Her Name was Neda - please remember her.

    Neda

    CNN: "Neda" becomes rallying cry for Iranian protests (click here to read)

    Thanks for including me!

    It is a great day to be alive!
    What Question can I ask to empower myself and others?
    What new thought can I notice now to add to my creativity?
    How can I improve the experience of those I encounter today?
    What can I do to facilitate your Gift?

    Yesterday Is History
    Tomorrow is a Mystery
    Today is a Gift...
    That's why we call it the Present

    Just wanted to say how much I LOVE the First Daughter books. Blogged about them today. Just wondering *fingers crossed* will there be more? I'd love to hear about all four years in the White House.

    Hi Mitali! I hope you'll check out my latest blog on being a "Closeted Latina." I talk about what it's like being from a multicultural family. I think you'll get a kick out of it.

    Hi Mitali--my library has your second book (White House Rules) but not its prequel (Extreme American Makeover). Is it necessary to read the first book before the second, or would I be able to figure things out ok?
