Whichever worship you perform, whatever you call him--God is on the throne. I know it doesn't seem like it sometimes, guys, still, God's got this. Good job, Neda. Rest, Sister.
Dear Ellie, and att the BraveHearts in Iran,

I have been seeing this vision in my head since watching it on the news

My heart is broken for Neda...her family and friends.

Love and great courage to all that stand up for what they believe...

Dear Neda:

Thank you for being a VOICE for freedom. You have taught us about courage and you will not be forgotten.

I am praying for your family and your country.

May the VOICE of the people prevail!

In her death, Neda has brought more consciousness to the world. I hope it will create a shift to be more kind and less judgemental of other people's beliefs. Neda, you are a beautiful spirit and a braveheart woman.

as a braveheart woman, for me today it does not matter that you are a woman or a man, the only important thing is that you were an innocent human being.

the same innocent spirit is inside every creature.

the pain comes from outside, doing the same hurts to you, Neda, and the being who shoots your heart.

please, friends, try to never forget that movie "Crash" we saw not so long after the 11S. it was like a song to innocence and love.

forgivness is the only path to love and prosperity. As a braveheart woman in my 47s, I know this, and also how difficult it is sometimes to forgive

politicians, human beings in government all around the world, should release and spread this spirit of forgiveness. peace

all my love for you, Ellie and our community, all the power of forgiveness and acceptance inside our bravehearts
Neda,

Rest in peace and know your gift is cherished.
Be with your family...
You have served in the highest possible way.

Now is a time we all must honor the place we are on our path.
We must honor the place that others are, on their paths.

It will serve us now to turn our focus away from our longing to understand, and toward our contribution to a higher energy.

"People will disappoint you. Love them anyway"
Mother Theresa spoke of the highest gift in our scope.

Rise!

Every event holds purpose.

Linda

I don't know what to say. I'm appalled and shocked.

I can only pray that her death will not be in vain.

May you rest in peace Neda.

My heart is breaking. I now understand what Carl Jung meant when he said, "One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light but by making the darkness conscious."

Neda has opened the eyes and the hearts of humanity. Her sacrifice shines a bright light into the darkness.

Thank you for sharing this. And thank you Neda for making the darkness conscious. Your sacrifice will not be forgotten!
My heart was almost stopped when I saw this young beautiful girl passed away in her own blood while her father restlessly is trying to save her.
Brilliant mind and brave women of Iran can not live under the dictatorship of goverment.This movement has to continue ,no human should live like this.More power to Neda's movement.
Thank you for posting Neda's video. I pray the Iranian government feels the pressure to stop the violence. However, violence in the home is commonplace.

In the US, 1 in 4 women are victims of domestic violence. Children are growing up in abusive environments and learning... violence can control others. Eight young people, under 21, are killed by violence EVERY DAY in America.

If any women would like to help stop the cycle of violence, check out my website and contact me. Stephanie

P.S. You have the power to make your neighborhood and community safe!

Ellie,
I'm so sadden and my heart aches not only for Neda's family and her friends. Its really a shame that in Tehran you don't have the freedoms like we do here in the US.

Neda losed her life for standing up for what she believed in and I will never forget her bravery and courage.

Rest in peace(Neda)

Ellie,

I send my prayers, love and light to the family and friends of Neda.

For the Iranian people I hold the space of peace in my heart for their victory of spirit.

Neda's spirit and determination will not be lost or forgotten. I honor her BraveHeart.

Love,

Kathy
I am so saddened by this event; the world has lost a fine young woman - one of many we lose every day. I am especially heartbroken, as I spent my teenage years in Tehran (1966-1972), and cannot believe my eyes when I see violence such as this on the streets of the city.

It takes me back to the harsh times of the "Revolution" - long after I left for college in the U.S.. Such turmoil; how can one nation continue to fight it's own citizens, for so many years?

Sending all Iranians love; may there be peace, and prosperity there once again. I know the passions of the Iranian people are deep, and ancient; they will survive this, and more. But, may the government choose another path.

Neda, blessings upon you, and your family.

Love,
Kim
Dear Ellie,

When in our own birth country we are not allowed to express ourselves peacefully and freely, much pain begins to develop. Like a canker, the pain becomes infectious.

When in our own birth country a young woman demonstrating peacefully with her father is shot in the heart, the pain is so tremendous that it becomes overwhelming.

When in any country, anywhere, and in any relationship we come together in peace, solidarity, love, compassion, truth -- like what you have created with BraveHeart Women, Inspiration in Action -- then what emerges is like a miracle. Like a butterfly that emerges from a cocoon. -- with much struggle, much energy, perhaps even pain. Yet, when wings are spread, then we all will fly.

Please know we are here for you with great compassion.

Krista
To Ellie and all BraveHeart Women,

An awful tragedy for standing up for liberty and freedom! I honor her courage!

Where else around the world has similar things happened and are happening? for freedom, for liberty?

Could things happen in America? for freedom, for liberty?

It is truly imperative that we are and remain conscious and aware about any possible or potential to limitations and restrictions on our freedom and liberty.

We must stand up now and always for freedom in America and everywhere around the world.

That takes courage, my friends, but courage we will NEVER regret!

BraveHeart Women and everyone, lets be a beacon of light in standing up peacefully - by voicing our opinions, by sharing what we know in real life, by encouragement, by standing up together in any peaceful manner. Let's share express our freedom and liberty values and principles to those in positions of power.
