“I write for those women who do not speak,
for those who do not have a voice because
they were so terrified, because
we are taught to respect fear more than ourselves.
We’ve been taught that silence would save us, but it won’t.”
– Audre Lorde

One vote counts!
Dear friends & fellow Malaysians,
today we come together in unity
to vote as one nation.
Voting is not all but the least we could do.
As one, our voices will be heard
As one, we can make a difference
As one, we can heal this land
As one, we can shape a better tomorrow
for our children and future generations
in this beautiful countryย
we call home.
“Schools are chosen as polling centers.ย This school is about 5 minutes from my house.”
“It’s scorching hot today but the crowd waited patiently for their turn to cast their votes.”
โI have come to believe
over and over again that
what is most important
to me must be spoken,
made verbal and shared,
even at the risk of having it
bruised or misunderstood.โ

“The one thing that you have that nobody else has is you.
Your voice,
your mind,
your story,
your vision.
So write and draw and build and play and dance and live as only you can.”

โSometimes I lie awake at night, and I ask, ‘Where have I gone wrong?’.
Then a voice says to me, ‘This is going to take more than one night.โโ Charles Schulz
