According to the lab test:
We are colour blind.
We do not see colour.
We do not see race.
But we can see
someone’s true colours.

Let’s start the race!
I live in a country where
we are still defined by our race.
Some say,
it’s to preserve our own culture and heritage.
But I beg to differ as
over the years had caused much
discrimination and discord.
And those in authority are
killing our spirits
with their on-going rhetoric
for popularity and votes.
We need to see ourselves as
one nation, one human race.
Let us join our hearts together
to push for change
no matter how difficult
or long it may take
for the sake of our children
and future generations.
The time is now, my friends.
Let’s start the race today!
Joke of the day – Firefly race
How do fireflies start a race?

“Running is about finding your inner peace, and so is a life well lived.”
– Dean Karnazes
Quote of the day – Rowan Atkinson
“To criticize a person for their race is manifestly irrational and ridiculous, but to criticize their religion, that is a right. That is a freedom. The freedom to criticize ideas, any ideas – even if they are sincerely held beliefs – is one of the fundamental freedoms of society. A law which attempts to say you can criticize and ridicule ideas as long as they are not religious ideas is a very peculiar law indeed.”
– Rowan Atkinson
Quote of the day – Nelson Mandela
“No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.”
– Nelson Mandela
Quote of the day – Margaret Atwood
“I hope that people will finally come to realize that there is only one “race” – the human race and that we are all members of it.”
– Margaret Atwood
Joke of the day – A healthy race
Did you hear about the race between the lettuce and the tomato?
The lettuce was a ‘head’ and the tomato was trying to ‘ketchup’!
Joke of the day – Just horsing around
Two horses were walking back to the paddock after training. One says to the other “I can’t understand why we are so slow, we come from good stock, we have the best of food, great trainers, and yet we come last in every race.”
There was a dog running along side them who overheard and said “I know what your problem is. I have seen you race and it looks to me as if you race off at the start really fast and use up all your energy and then you have nothing left. What you should do is pace yourselves and when all the other horses are tuckered, put in a spurt and you’re sure to win. What do you think of that?”.
The horses looked at one another and said “WOW, a talking dog!”
