TO ALL THE BOOK BANNERS OUT THERE
Today’s blessing comes from Stephen Chbosky
(He wrote The Perks of Being a Wallflower)
and in this time when people are banning books
his words hold special power…
To all you out there who are banning books
may you be blessed to one day see the light…
to comprehend what you are doing is wrong
and understand Stephen Chbosky is right:
“Banning books,” he says,
“gives us silence when we need speech.
It closes or ears when we need to listen.
It makes us blind when we need sight”
