I consider myself a free spirit. The unusual interests me in practically everything. The following quotations express an important part of my worldview: Being myself includes taking risks with myself, taking risk on new behaviour, trying new ways of “being myself” so that I can see how it is I want to be - Hugh Prather Many societies have educated their male children on the simple device of teaching them not to be women - Margaret MeadIn societies where men are truly confident of their worth, women are not merely tolerated but valued - Aung San Suu Kyi To handle yourself, use your head; to handle others, use your heart - George Bernard Shaw Our humanity rests upon a series of learned behaviors, woven together into patterns that are infinitely fragile and never directly inherited - Margaret Mead You can reach me at justjibril@yahoo.com - BLOG.
