Linda Schexnayder is an author, poet, speech writer, blogger, columnist,
freelance writer, editorialist, keynote and motivational speaker, educator and
CEO of Healthy Living USA. Her book, The 2008 Presidential Election
Handbook and Commentary: The Connection to Hope, published by Healthy
Living USA Publishing Division Nevada --
http://www.healthylivingusa.com/theconnectiontohope -- is a 316-page
handbook on the responsibility of American citizenship and constitutional
authority. It delves ever so gently into the Politics of Life as a necessary and
vital part of American living. She believes it's a connection to realizing the
American dream of financial security. Through training, instruction and
Politics of Life Membership, she fosters awareness, action and continuous
engagement of national, state and local governance.
She published The Poetry of the Heart Collection in 2000; a thematic
anthology of inspirational poetry to impact the soul. Plans are underway to
release it again in 2012. Until then, framed selections of designated poems
are available at http://www.healthylivingusa.com/poetryoftheheartcollection.
Framed titles are alternated every two years and are chosen by the author.
Each poem reflects one or more of four categories:
Poetry that heals
Poetry that encourages and inspires
Poetry that provokes thought
Poetry that comforts and befriends
A powerful experience can be derived from poetry reading at any moment of
the day. In a speech at Amherst College in Amherst, Massachusetts on
October 26. 1963, President John F. Kennedy said, "When power leads men
towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power
narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and
diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses. For art
establishes the basic human truth which must serve as the touchstone of
our judgment."

"Few will have the greatness to bend history, but each of us can work to change a
small portion of events, and in the total of all those acts will be written the history
of this generation... It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that
human history is shaped. Each time a man [or woman] stands up for an ideal, or acts
to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he [or she] sends forth a
tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of
energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest
walls of oppression and resistance." Robert (Bobby) Francis Kennedy, University of Cape Town,
South Africa, "Day of Affirmation" Speech, June 6, 1966
