In my desperation, I have finally discovered that the only way that I can begin to fill the gaping hole within me is to be thankful for what’s there, and not angry for what’s not.

Memory is a few lines snipped from a larger story that we are privileged to tuck away between the pages of our minds.
Privilege doesn't just insulate people from the consequences of their prejudice, it cuts them off from their humanity.

My greatest privilege is being married to a gentle loving husband. I am very grateful God made our path cross.

The greatest privileges:You are saved.You are a child of Most High God.You are co-heirs with Christ.You share in Christ suffering, life adversities.You share in Christ glory, strength of will and survival of life's difficulties.
Those of us who have overcome so many adversities from a very young age, are privileged to be able to communicate profound insights and advice to others, speaking from a place of genuine confidence and knowing.
~ Miya Yamanouchi
Instead of comparing our lot with that of those who are more fortunate than we are, we should compare it with the lot of the great majority of our fellow men. It then appears that we are among the privileged.
~ Helen Keller
It's terrifying to think you could become the next statistic.
Racism is dead only to those who've closed their eyes and ears to the whole world around them.
Privilege is when you contribute to the oppression of others and then claim that you are the one being discriminated against.
We may be happy but just don’t know it yet. Many want to rebuke themselves for not finding the threshold of well being, since they simply haven’t learnt to be nice to themselves and to enjoy the privileged twinklings of life. (C’est quand le bonheur ? )
~ Erik Pevernagie
Political correctness' as 'over-sensitivity' is code for saying the privileged shouldn't have their unearned privileges questioned.
Tolerance of intolerance enables oppression.
You're not under attack when others gain rights and privileges you've always had.
Privilege is not knowing that you're hurting others and not listening when they tell you.
You are privileged if you know that there is God, the only creator of Heaven and Earth because not everyone gets to understand that whist still alive.
~ Gugu Mona
