Caped wonders with super powers have been created throughout history during times when people were in dire need of "heroes". They could fly or do a Houdini from the arch-rival's snare. But, these heroes stay on the comic book (or the silver screen). Hence, we in the real world face challenges ourselves--sans super powers. Whether it's families breaking apart or declining literacy in the country, it is we who answer the call from where we are, with what we have.

Speaking up for the voiceless
Last Oct. 2 was Int'l Life Chain Sunday, and life chains were formed across different parts of the United States and Canada. South Africa participated, too, as well as other countries though I have no details about that.
Indeed, it was a peaceful way to stand up for life and speak up for the defenseless.
With all the hype and global efforts on the war on terror, I hope people come to realize that even pre-born babies aren't spared anymore from acts of terror -- specifically when someone decides that they don't have a right to be born and thus snuffs the life out of them.
Pre-born babies need protection from acts of terror, too.
