Hero Of The Day: Lesley Hazleton


So I'm going to be starting a series. Links to Youtube videos, basically, ('cos I don't know how to put the actual whole video, like, INTO the post yet, if you know what I mean) of people who deserve one way or another to be honored. Looked at. Shouted-out. However you want to put it.

Feel free to submit whatever Hero you feel should be given the heart-felt and longed-for honor of being put on my website. Animals, vegetables and minerals may qualify. Justin Bieber, Robert Pattinson and/or Kristen Stewart need not apply. (Unless they've done something enormous to deserve such an honor and the reforming of my view towards them. Which, ahem, would need to be BIG.)

Now, presenting our First Hero of the Dayyy.... (I don't get to announce stuff like this very often, let me have my fun!)

LESLEYYYYY HAZLETON!!! (which you already know if you've been half-awake, as that is pointed to very clearly in my subject line itself. Ha.)

She is an author, an agnostic Jew who gave a 10-minute talk about the Qur'an a while ago that was heartfelt, enlightening, and very true. She refers to herself as "an accidental theologist" (not very informative, but I liked the way that sounds :)

Here is the video that has qualified her for this honor.

Her blog:

So, cheers to Ms. Hazleton! Stay tuned :)
