I have to admit I admire people that have experienced adversity and then emerged from it.  They may come out with scars but they have been tested and they have survived.  It is really difficult for me to listen to the advice of those that have not experienced powerful adversity.  Really, how do they know anything about life?

I love quotes from some of these people like Helen Keller.  Have you read some of her stuff?  Amazing.  She saw so much!  Here are just three.  If you want to see some of her quotes, go here.

You would say that the First Lady would not know adversity but the wisdom of Eleanor would disagree, I believe.  Did you know her parents and her brothers all died while Eleanor was very young?  She endured the unfaithfulness of a husband (duh).  She fought strongly for women's rights but also for the civil rights for African Americans and Asian Americans which was very controversial in the early 1900's.  Here are a few of her quotes:

So a guy names Henrik Edherg published "Gandhi's Rules for Changing the World" that I think continue to exist and may always exist but what did Gandhi know, right?  Well, he had adversity, experience and time and that often translate to wisdom so, I believe, he knew a lot about Changing the World.  Here is that article.

The plan is to relate what these three said with what is going on with the Trans community and how these teachings influence Transwomen National.
