But it did because there’s more of us than the world thought and there’s more to us than the world gave us credit for.  Don’t listen to what anyone has to say and eventually, they’ll start listening to you.</span></p> </blockquote>http://nearsyx.tumblr.com/post/50968592668http://nearsyx.tumblr.com/post/50968592668Tue, 21 May 2013 00:43:45 -0400<img

around several of the city’s chruches, known for his prostrations of thanks to all donors, it was only recently discovered that he has donated every penny he has collected — over 40,000 euros —
