Nobody has my eyes, my nose, my hair, my voice. I'm special. No one can be found who has my handwriting. Nobody anywhere has my tastes - for food or music or art. no one sees things just as I do. In all of time there's been no one who laughs like me, no one who cries like me. And what makes me laugh and cry will never provoke identical laughter and tears from anybody else, ever. No one reacts to any situation just as I would react. I'm special. I'm the only one in all of creation who has my set of abilities. Oh, there will always be somebody who is better at one of the things I'm good at, but no one in the universe can reach the quality of my com­ bination of talents, ideas, abilities and feelings. Like a room full of musical instruments, some may excel alone, but none can match the symphony of sound when all are played together. I'm a symphony. Through all of eternity no one will ever look, talk, walk, think or do like me. I'm special. I'm rare. And in rarity there is great value. Because of my great rare value, I need not attempt to imitate others. I willl accept - yes, celebrate - my differences.

  • Aidwychistory
    AIDWYC HISTORY ______________________________________________ AIDWYC is a Canadian based volunteer organization dedicated to preventing and rectifying wrongful convictions. AIDWYC has two broad objectives: first, eradicating the conditions that give rise to miscarriages of justice; and second, participating in the review and, where warranted, correction of wrongful convictions. AIDWYC is a voluntary, non-profit association dedicated to assisting factually innocent persons who have been wrongfully convicted of a serious crime. AIDWYC was founded in 1993. It is the direct successor to the Justice for Guy Paul Morin Committee, a grass-roots organization that came into existence in support of Guy Paul Morin immediately following his wrongful conviction in the summer of 1992. When Guy Paul Morin was released on bail in February 1993, pending his appeal, this Committee reconstituted itself as AIDWYC having consciously decided to broaden its mandate and to act in defence of all persons who had been wrongly convicted. Until his death in May 2010, AIDWYC’s Honourary President was the Honourable Gregory T. Evans, the former Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the Province of Ontario and one of the three Commissioners who presided over the "Royal Commission on the Donald Marshall, Jr., Prosecution". For some ten years ending in September 2004 AIDWYC’s Executive Director was Rubin Hurricane Carter who himself spent 20 years in prison for crimes he did not commit. The directors of AIDWYC include lawyers, academics and other interested members of the public. AIDWYC CONFERENCES AIDWYC has sponsored or co-sponsored a number of international conferences including the 1994 conference, "Innocents Behind Bars"… the 1995 conference "Justice on Trial: The Wrongful Conviction of Guy Paul Morin", the 1996 conference "Coffin’s Legacy: Keeping the Death Penalty at Bay”, the 1998 conference in Chicago, Illinois "The National Conference on Wrongful Convictions and the Death Penalty" (of which AIDWYC was a co-sponsor).
