I know why the caged bird sings
by Maya Angelou
A free bird leaps on the back
Of the wind and floats downstream
Till the current ends and dips his wing
In the orange suns rays
And dares to claim the sky.
But a BIRD that stalks down his narrow cage
Can seldom see through his bars of rage
His wings are clipped and his feet are tied
So he opens his throat to sing.
The caged bird sings with a fearful trill
Of things unknown but longed for still
And his tune is heard on the distant hill for
The caged bird sings of freedom.
The free bird thinks of another breeze
And the trade winds soft through
The sighing trees
And the fat worms waiting on a dawn-bright
Lawn and he names the sky his own.
But a caged BIRD stands on the grave of dreams
His shadow shouts on a nightmare scream
His wings are clipped and his feet are tied
So he opens his throat to sing.
The caged bird sings with
A fearful trill of things unknown
But longed for still and his
Tune is heard on the distant hill
For the caged bird sings of freedom.

She is one of only three people born with an unusual genetic ailment that prevents her from gaining any weight, but now, Lizzie Velasquez is sharing her inspirational life story to inspire others
Trends
When Lizzie Velasquez, 24, was in high school, she discovered an eight-second video online that featured a photo of her face. It called her the "world's ugliest woman" and had been viewed more than four million times.
What would have destroyed many only made Velasquez, who suffers from a very rare syndrome that prevents her from putting on weight and cost her the vision in one eye, stronger.
"Am I gonna let the people who called me a monster define me?...No. I'm gonna let my goals and my success and my accomplishments be the things that define me," she said.
She vowed to become a motivational speaker, an author and a college graduate.
Only a few years later, she is proudly all of the above.
At a recent TED Talk in Austin,TX, Velasquez shared her life story before asking the crowd, "What defines you?"

This is uncontrolled urination at night and the age when bladder control should have been achieved.
Urination occurs involuntarily in childhood but control over it begins between ages 2-6 years.
As one grows older, between the ages mentioned above, there is development of a hormone cycle which releases small amounts of the hormone ADH which antagonises urine formation at night. This cycle decreases urination at night.
Nocturnal enuresis is normal in children up to 3 years. It becomes a problem if it persists after age 6. Children with this usually suffer low self esteem.
Nocturnal enuresis is classified primary when there is no dryness for a prolonged period.
It is secondary when there is dryness for a period of about six months and then resumption of bedwetting.
CAUSES
*Developmental delay neurologically to sense bladder fullness. Small bladders may also fill early adding to the problem.

In the Sudanese Latuka tribe, when a man wants to marry a woman, he kidnaps her. Elderly members of his family go and ask the girl’s father for her hand in marriage, and if he agrees, the father beats the man as a sign of his acceptance of the union. If the father disagrees, however, the man might forcefully marry the girl anyway
