One giant leap for Liberia

I just came across a blog called Liberia Stories (liberiastories.blogspot.com) and would love to share with you part of Elma Shaw's recent post:

"As I drove past the Temple of Justice today, I saw something that made me gasp, shout, screech to a halt, and make a quick U-turn. I had to see it again. Could it be true? It was! The phrase I have detested ever since I could read was being hacked off the face of the building, letter by letter. LET JUSTICE BE DONE TO ALL MEN is, at long last, being rearranged to say LET JUSTICE BE DONE TO ALL. I wanted to cry. I wanted to leap for joy. I wanted to twirl aound like Fraulein Maria and sing ''The Hills are Alive with the Sound of Music.'' What I did do was smile and praise the construction supervisor as if it were his idea to make the change. No small steps here - This is one giant step for women, and one giant leap for Liberia."
