"If you're watching this, know that you have been selected. You will be cleansed. You will confess your sins and you will be offered atonement. Don't worry, you don't have to do anything: we'll come for you. Welcome to Eden's Gate"
may not be a good example, but for school we were supposed to watch this and I said to myself nah it's 22 minutes. but i ended up watching it anyway and actually watched through the whole thing and enjoyed it a lot
That was the best Ted talk I’ve ever watched, and one of the best RU-vid videos (others that top the list were of Kwame Alexander teaching kids poetry). Thank you for being in our world oh bright light.
Come brothers and come sisters, come weary and come strong Come meet the man who reaps the land, on which we walk upon The time has come for judgement, but we ain't done nothin' wrong Join us all, we all can sing along Oh John! Bold and brave! He's findin' us a family, he's teachin' us the faith Oh John! Keep us safe! He's gonna march us right through Eden's Gate (Oh Lord!) He's gonna march us right through Eden's Gate Come mothers and come fathers, come caring and come fierce You've gotta see this for yourself, if you can't believe your ears The blessing just takes just minutes, but it lasts a thousand years In holy water there can be no tears Oh John! Bold and brave! He's findin' us a family, he's teachin' us the faith Oh John! Keep us safe! He's gonna march us right through Eden's Gate (Oh Lord!) He's gonna march us right through Eden's Gate Come elders and come children, come wisdom and come fire You've gotta see how strong you'll be, when you're free of all desire Our country made a promise, but you cannot trust a liar So grab a book, and step into the choir Oh John! Bold and brave! He's findin' us a family, he's teachin' us the faith Oh John! Keep us safe! He's gonna march us right through Eden's Gate (Oh Lord!) He's gonna march us right through Eden's Gate (Oh Lord!) He's gonna march us right through Eden's Gate
Yes is great but don’t let your yes write a check your *ss can’t cash. Persistence is the most important aspect of success. Kwame seems to have persistence as much as yes.
I could add two to the list of Ten reasons why daddies cry at night. Ans I say Yessss....to Veziwa, To Antonia, to Jojo to Joanne, Yes to 0402/05 yes to struggles and broken dreams. Yes to what we become by it . What a talk Kwame
