Hello. As I walk, I find myself reflecting on things around us,
on beautiful nature and the parallels with Deaf people,
how just like it has taken years to build mother earth, so too has
our culture developed through the years.
We must respect nature, leave it be- just like we ask people to
respect us and leave us be. People are welcome to come and learn from us,
just like we learn from others when we immerse in their cultures
when we live within their world, eat, breathe, sleep. Similarly,
people learn about our beautiful culture and rich language, ASL.
ASL is beautiful, like the flowers before us- and it shouldn't be
destroyed- how dare anyone try to destroy either ASL or the Earth?
