Comment by Janine Ripper on September 26, 2011 at 10:07am: For those that don't already know, I have a personal blog - Reflections from a Red Head - where I have just commenced a series titled ‘The Beauty of Difference’.

In the wise words of Confucius:

‘Everything has its beauty but not everyone sees it’.

This is what I aim to change, through the use of words, interviews (written and video) as well as via photography. If you would like to be a part of it, please contact me at janine.ripper@gmail.com.

IT’S EASY TO MAKE A BUCK. IT’S A LOT TOUGHER TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
