Contrary to the cynicism of the above cartoon, I was so thrilled and captivated by the events this past week in Egypt. The fact that the people of Egypt achieved their goal—or the beginning of their goal—with non-violence is wonderful. What I found most  moving is that the uprising included people of all classes, religions, generations and both genders.  Women and men joined hands for freedom. We should learn from their efforts.  If we stopped thinking about celebrities for a moment.
