| Aung San Suu Kyi |
Aung San Suu Kyi has inspired me for years -- through her house arrest and imprisonment. Through her stolen election. Through the years of broken promises and indignities. But try as they might, the military junta could not silence her.
Two years ago, I wrote: "Never give up hope" when thinking of her. Five years ago, it seemed as if hope was a very small flame about to die.
Today, Aung San Suu Kyi has won a seat in the parliment. Everywhere she travels in Burma, she is met with joy and huge crowds who, like me, now overflow with Hope.
