"Fear is a habit. I am not afraid."

This is Aung San Suu Kyi.


She is a non-violent, pro-democracy activist, the leader of the National League for Democracy in Burma. Such a leader is not welcomed by the militia dictatorship there...

Her example lifts me into my humanity. Her story is one of great sacrifice and she faces it with the heart of a Lion that lies with the lamb. Please read this essay she wrote in the 90’s. See if you are not lifted - you have nothing to be afraid of...

“The only real prison is fear, and the only real freedom is freedom from fear.” Aung San Suu Kyi
