She just called to tell us she was pregnant ^_^ My mother is really happy XD She is speaking in a sing-song voice all the time! XD I hope anyone who reads this will welcome me back and be forgiving of my long absence! ^^' I removed some of my deviations and I'll be starting a new 'life' in DA, I mean I was absent for so long that I guess things have changed a lot since my last visit, hehe~ My drawing style didnd't change much since I didn't practice drawing per se. So yeah, Hetalia and other random things comin' up! I'm gonna major in Translation and stuff, but that probably doesn't interest you very much, haha!

#Undying happiness series#

I'm a huge Hetalia fan now, so expect lots and lots of drawing of the characters and stuff! (Though I might change my favourite series somewhere during the summer, I'm unpredictable!) I've changed a lot too! I still like the stuff I liked back then, but with more moderation I guess! Read my Forbes blog here.It's been like, years, since I last updated and I'm really sorry about that! I guess most people here don't remember me at all and it's totally okay! But ever since Thomas Jefferson penned those magnificent words centuries ago, his spell has emboldened the enslaved and terrified the mighty.Īnd so it shall, I hope, until the day that every person on earth holds 'these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.'įollow me on Twitter or Facebook. There are still battles to be fought, oppression to be trampled, and people to be liberated. Of course, the enemies of freedom still remain. The power of Jefferson's words was revived and did smite Jim Crow with a righteous fury. He and the hundreds of thousands who marched with him shouted those words. 'This note was a promise that all men would be guaranteed the inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.' 'When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir,' he thundered. stood in front of his memorial and spoke the words that re-energized the Declaration of Indpendence, keeping it strong in all the decades since. Jim Crow did his best, but he, too fell in the end.Īnd so it was that 100 years after Lincoln re-consecrated the Declaration of Independence with the Gettysburg Address, Martin Luther King, Jr. And over those decades, Jefferson's spell weakened. Over the course of decades, they invoked their evil demons of Jim Crow and white supremacy to fight Jefferson. He resolved that 'this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom.' Two years later, slavery was crushed and the Union reunited.īut still the old slaveocrats struggled against the power of those words. And so it was on the fields of Gettysburg that America's greatest President, Abraham Lincoln, took the opportunity to strengthen Jefferson's spell and use his words to bind the nation back together.

They had been bolstered for decades by the oppressed worldwide, who clung to them as a rock in their just demand for equality and freedom. Alexander Stephens, the Vice-President of the Confederacy, tried to weave his own spell, declaring in 1861 that 'Our new government is founded upon exactly the opposite idea its foundations are laid, its corner- stone rests, upon the great truth that the negro is not equal to the white man that slavery subordination to the superior race is his natural and normal condition.'īut Jefferson's words were too strong. Those words were so powerful that the slaveocrats of the Confederacy battled them directly. At war because Douglass was absolutely right - the existence of slavery was a rebuke to the ideals Jefferson wrote in the Declaration of Indpendence. Less than 10 years later, the United States was at war.
