bullets: When I Am Quiet (new poem) →
suziqsmith:
When I laugh, I mean it.
Loud and from my belly.
Throw my head back, shake my hair

It is when I am quiet that it is time to pay attention.
When I am quiet something big is about to happen.
When I am quiet I am concentrating.
When I am quiet I am going to climax.

infoneer-pulse:
$6 million to fund an institution that would be capable to educate an infinite amount of students throughout the world sounds ambitious if not crazy.
Nevertheless Shai Reshef, founder and president of the University of the People says that those $6 million would be sufficient to enable the non-profit to reach sustainability and to fulfill its goal - forever.
