    There are times when certain parents will say something like this to their children:
    “You have it so easy.  Why every day, I had to walk ten miles, through blizzards, going uphill both ways just to go to school.”
    Exaggerations notwithstanding, there are some people who have had to endure a great deal of sacrifice to get the education they yearned for.

    Chronologically, the female I am lauding this time is not a woman.  But if anyone deserves some kudos (and a whole lot more) from Me, and all folks of good will, this young lady definitely does.  And that’s why this blog post is all about:

    WOW! WHAT A WOMAN — MAGNIFICENT MALALA

    The title of her autobiography reveals why this teenager is absolutely remarkable:

    I Am Malala: The Girl Who Stood Up for Education and Was Shot by the Taliban

    Malala Yousafzai’s thirst for knowledge and moxie are praiseworthy indeed.  What kind of a powerhouse of a woman shall she become as she matures?

    I adore it when fine folks send Me comments, questions, and suggestions inspired by something I’ve written, said, or done.
