The Power of Words

Open your mouth,

and you will find,

the power to communicate,

the force that binds.

Open your ears,

and you will hear,

the languages that tie us all together,

drowning out every tear.

Learning to understand

understanding to learn.

That is the key,

what makes the world turn.

<p>I have a deep passion for connecting to people through language. I think learning different languages help us as a global community to bond and care for each other -- seeing each other as equals at the base of our essence: humanity.</p>
