Karen and Kelly are the hearts of my inspiration, and the roots of my opportunity. Last year Karen and Kelly asked if they could use the poem I had published that year. They asked if they could use it in correlation to the school they have been working towards building in Madagascar. In a way it is a private non-profit organization in which they are allowing me to contribute. From this poem, and the affirmation that has been drawn from it, has stemmed the opportunity of a life time. A chance for me to actively immerse myself in the Malagasy culture. A chance for me to nurture those who are empty; cloth those who are naked; and listen to all of those who want to be heard. However, I would not be capable of physically giving these things, if it weren't for the gift that has been given to me by Karen and Kelly.
