Ayat ini jelas mengatakan bahwa Allah itu mengasihi kita semua. Allah mengasihi kita dengan banyak macam caranya yang sungguh dahsyat dan heran. Nah dari pada itu semua kita perlu lebih dekat lagi kepada Allah, agar Allah selalu mengasihi kita semua. Agar Tuhan tetap dan selalu mengasihi, kita sebagai umatnya juga perlu bergaul lebih dekat lagi dengan Allah seperti dalam mazmur 25:14 " Tuhan bergaul karib dengan orang yang takut akan Dia,dan perjanjiannya diberitahukan-Nya kepada mereka. "
Tuhan selalu memberikan apa yang kita butuhkan, dan disaat Tuhan memberikannya selalu tepat pada waktunya. disaat itu, Tuhan tentu mengerti akan apa yang kita inginkan. Maka dari itu kita perlu menjadi satu roh dengan DIA dan pada saat itu juga tuhan akan mengetahui semua yang kita butuhkan. Seperti pada 1korintus 6:17 " Tetapi siapa yang mengikatkan dirinya pada Tuhan, menjadi satu roh dengan Dia. "
Seringkali kita umat manusia sering lupa akan kasih yang diberikan-Nya oleh kita semua. Namun tuhan tetap mengasihi kita semua. Hal ini bisa kita lihat dari contoh sederhan seperti saat kita ingin melakukan sesuatu hal, kita tidak awali dengan doa padahal jika melakukan itu semua, saya percaya Tuhan tidak akan tinggal diam untuk membantu kita. Seperti pada mazmur 37 : 5 " Serahkanlah hidupmu kepada Tuhan dan percayalah kepada-Nya, dan Ia akan bertindak."
Saat Tuhan mengasihi kita, patutnya kita tidak perlu kuatir akan apapun juga. Namun pada dasarnya manusia sering mengalami hal kekuatiran. Padahal Tuhan sudah jelas menjamin segala kebutuhan kita seperti pada 1petrus 5:7 " serahkanlah segala kekuatiranmu kepada-Nya, sebab Ia yamg akan memelihara kamu." ayat ini patutnya kita pegang teguh di dalam hati agar kita semua dapat menghilangkan hal kekuatiran pada diri kita masing-masing.
Pada injil matius 6 : 25-34 tentang hal kekuatitran, dalam ayat ini dijelaskan bahwa Tuhan berkata kepada kita semua agar janganlah engkau kuatir akan apapun juga. Tuhan saja memelihara burung-burung yang ada di langit yang hidup bebas, bukankah kita lebih dari burung-burung itu, ini dimaksudkan agar kita menyadari betapa Tuhan menyayangi dan menghasihi kita semua.. Tuhan tentu tidak akan pernah tidur untuk mengawasi kita dan memelihara kita. Dan yang paling terpenting pada matius 6 : 33 " Tetapi carilah dulu kerajaan Allah dan kebenaran-Nya, maka semuanya akan ditambahkan kepadamu."
kesimpulan dan hikmah yang bisa di ambil dari ini adalh penting untuk kita, agar menyadari betapa besar kasih yang diberikan oleh Allah pada kita. Jadi kita perlu berbangga menjadi anak-anak Allah, karena kita dianggap berharga di mata-Nya dari apapun juga.

“HAMBURGERS AND HOTDOG BELONG TO JUNK FOODS”
Hamburger (or often referred to as a burger) is a type of food in the form of round-shaped bread is sliced in half and the middle filled with a patty that is usually taken from the meat, then vegetables in the form of lettuce, tomatoes and onions. For the sauce, burgers were given various kinds of sauces such as mayonnaise, ketchup and chili sauce and mustard. Some variants burger also comes with cheese, pickles, and other supplementary materials such as sausage and Ham.
Hot Dog (Frankfurter, frank, wiener, Weenie) is a type of sausage that is cooked or smoked and has a smoother texture and flavor are more delicate and moist than in most sausages. Hot dogs are often eaten by hand (fingerfood), especially in the United States, and usually eaten with soft bread (bun) together with the sausage-shaped, sometimes accompanied by condiments and toppings. Sandwich formed from this combination also called hot dogs.
Both these foods are some examples of fast food less healthy. this is because of the materials used, how to build, and how to serve it more often less qualified in terms of health.
But in the modern era like today, fulfilling the needs of fast-paced life should be prosecuted or instant. In this case foods such as hamburgers and hot dogs are considered as one alternative to meet the food needs of modern society. However, society often forget that his health will consume hamburgers and hot dogs to excess. Yet in these foods more negative effects than positive effects.
Hamburgers and hot dogs is one of the junk food or unhealthy food, because besides having little nutrition, nutrient content and contain almost no large amount of fat. In addition, these foods contain too many ingredients that can harm the human body when in continuous consumption. Various diseases can also be caused by consuming these foods include: digestive disorders, gastritis, throat disorders and even the most serious is cancer.
Meat is one of the ingredients necessary to make hamburgers and hot dogs. But in these materials contribute the most negative impact, because eating beef, pork or lamb with a size of 2 ½-ounce servings per day of current and future likely will not cause negative effects on health. However, if you eat more than 18 ounces of meat red or processed meat per week can lead to risk of colorectal cancer (cancer that attacks the large intestine).

Guitar Hero
BB King, “King of the Blues” Sepanjang Masa
Written by madmax
BB KingBB King dilahirkan 16 September 1925 di Itta Bena, Mississippi, dekat kawasan Indianola. Masa belianya dimulai dengan mengamen. Terkadang dalam semalam, ia bermain di beberapa tempat. Pada 1974, BB menumpang hidup di Memphis demi mengejar karier musiknya. Memphis merupakan wilayah berpengaruh bagi komunitas pemusik Selatan, yang mendukung penemuan karya musik terluas dari segala gaya Afrika Amerika.
Di sana BB (Blues Boy) menetap dengan tantenya, Bukka White, salah seorang pemain blues kenamaan saat itu. Bukka White membantu menyekolahkan BB dalam seni musik blues. Lagu andalan awal BB adalah “Three O’Clock Blues” yang kemudian melambungkan namanya. Sebagai gitaris blues, BB kemudian berhasil mengembangkan gaya tersendiri.
Ia terinspirasi Blind Lemon Jefferson, T-Bone Walker dan sejumlah gitaris tenar lain. Semua itu digabungkannya dengan akurasi lekuk gaya vokalnya yang rumit, dan teknik vibrato pada tangan kirinya. Model permainannya itu mampu mempengaruhi ribuan gitaris penerus, dari Eric Clapton dan George Harrison hingga Jeff Beck. BB berhasil menggabungkan corak musik tradisional blues, jazz, swing, pop mainstream yang menjadi titik tolak ke arah sound yang unik.
BB King, dengan gitarnya yang dinamainya Lucille, dalam tur Eropa terakhirnya, telah mengucapkan salam perpisahan dengan emosional kepada para penggemarnya di “Montreux Jazz Festival 2006” tahun lalu. Gitaris bergelar King of Blues itu telah ikut festival jazz internasional tersebut dalam lebih dari 20 tahun.
Kini, King telah memasuki usia 82 dan menderita diabetes. Ia muncul di atas pentas festival jazz itu bersama artis-artis jazz dari negara tuan rumah pada malam akhir konser mereka di kota tempat berlibur di tepi Danau Geneva, Swiss, tersebut. Para penyanyi Gladys Knight, Barbara Hendrick, Randy Crawford, dan Leela James; gitaris-gitaris John Mclaughlin dan Stanley Clarke; pemain-pemain keyboard Joe Sample dan George Duke; serta peniup saksofon David Sanborn; menyampaikan hormat mereka kepada sang King of Blues. "Mestinya saya menyampaikan salam perpisahan setiap malam," ucap King, yang menyanyi dan bermain gitar sambil duduk, dalam penampilannya selama dua setengah jam hingga dini itu. "Saya akan menangis lagi, periode ini tak ubahnya lapisan gula pada kue saya, tidak mungkin dilepas dengan cara yang lebih baik lagi dari sekarang," tuturnya penuh emosi.

SALUTE TO "HELEN KELLER"
A.PURPOSE OF WRITING THIS TASK
I summarize the purpose of this novel is to give a little knowledge and insight to friends and even society at large about the life story that has been done by one of the world "Helen Keller". In addition to his friends and the wider community can also take lessons to be learned from this novel and inspired by "Helen Keller". and I also intended to remind to always be grateful for what has been given by GOD.
B.THE SUMMARY
Biography
Helen Adams Keller was born normal in Tuscumbia, Alabama 27 june 1880 United States. At age 19 months, he was attacked by a mysterious disease that causes blindness and deafness. She was so wild and can not be taught at age 7 years, which his parents met Johanna (Anne) Mansfeld Sullivan Macy to become a private teacher and mentor. Annie Helen's hand under water and with sign language, he uttered "WATER" on the other hand. While Helen holds the land, Annie say "LAND" and this is done as many as 30 words per day.
Helen taught to read by braille to understand what he meant. Helen writes, "I remember the most important day in my entire life was when my teacher, Anne Mansfield Sullivan, came to me." With diligence, Annie taught Helen to speak through the mouth movements, so that Helen said, "The best and most beautiful thing that is not seen or touched by the world is perceived in the heart." He studied French, German, Greek and Latin through braille. At age 20, she studied at Radcliffe College (Harvard University branch), specifically women. Annie accompany textbooks to spell, letter by letter, which is put into the hands of Helen. Only 4 years old, Helen graduated magna cum laude. She died June 1, 1968 (aged 87)
Arcan Ridge, Easton, Connectitut, USA
“Helen Keller” never want to give up on fate
Helen Keller born in Tuscumbia normal, American. 19 months when he suffered from heat illness, so that a deaf mute. because they can not hear and see, Helen was unable to mimic the words of his parents that his ability to speak is limited. As a result he was irritable and unable to control emotions. One day, he was furious that her brother was even thrown a baby into the ground, luckily her mother is coming. After experiencing a horrific event, parents Helen decided to invite experts to educate teachers. After a long process finally they get a tutor, Miss Anne Sullivan.
The arrival of Mrs sullivan less well received than Helen, resulting in a commotion. because of disability, then Hellen very bad eating habits, eating with their hands while walking back and forth like a small dog. Mrs. Sullivan was determined to change this bad habit. After working hard, he managed to teach the correct way to eat at Helen's spoiled. In the process of educating Helen, Mrs. Sullivan often disagree with Helen's parents as they often interfere in educating Helen. That's why Mrs. Sullivan asked permission to stay alone with Helen in a small house which is 500 m from Helen's parents' house.
At first Helen rebel because not used. after Mrs. Sullivan teaches a variety of interesting crafts, Helen was pleased that all the hostility disappeared. Gradually, Helen could not make a necklace of beads. but also can make a scarf. Because Hellen happy finger game, finally Mrs. Sullivan teaches sign language.
Although've learned a lot of vocabulary words, but Helen did not know the meaning, he thinks all this is just a game. Until one day when Mrs. Sullivan took Helen to walk, they approached the water pump. When Helen realizes that all the objects in this world has a name. Originally known this, Helen is very excited and then he tried hard to learn. Mrs. Sullivan very satisfied with the progress of Helen.
After some time Mrs. Sullivan decided to invite Helen to Boston to receive formal education. They went to Mrs. Sullivan is a former school Perskins school. Because here are many deaf-blind student. Helen happily speak with sign language on her friends.
When summer vacation Mrs. Sullivan took Helen to play on the beach while the winter vacation, they went into the mountains to play sled and make the puppets from the snow. Besides love to play, Helen is also serious in the lesson. Successive he studied geography, history, grammar, mathematics, etc..
1890, Mrs. Sullivan took Helen to meet a teacher who taught at the school for the blind and deaf, Miss Sarah. Mrs. Sarah Helen train talk. Helen not only serious when it was taught, at home he is also diligent practice, so when I got home he managed to talk like normal people and make his parents very touched.
After learning to talk, Helen learn more vigorously to realize its ideals into college. After passing a long a difficult journey, in 1900 he successfully passed the test, and went to Harvard. Four years later, Helen managed to graduate with a satisfactory value. Helen also became the first deaf blind people in the world to graduate from college.
Since then Mrs. Sullivan accompany Helen lectured in various places, looking for funding for people with disabilities. Tender after year, they have been around almost the entire United States. As a result of too tired, Mrs. Sullivan became ill and died in October 1936. Despite the deep sadness remains vibrant Helen lectured for the welfare of handicapped people in the world.
In 1945, various countries around the world began to make laws protecting against persons with disabilities.
Political activities
Keller went on to become a world-famous speaker and author. She is remembered as an advocate for people with disabilities, amid numerous other causes. She was a suffragist, a pacifist, an opponent of Woodrow Wilson, a radical socialist and a birth control supporter. In 1915 she and George Kessler founded the Helen Keller International (HKI) organization. This organization is devoted to research in vision, health and nutrition. In 1920 she helped to found the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). Keller and Sullivan traveled to over 39 countries, making several trips to Japan and becoming a favorite of the Japanese people. Keller met every U.S. President from Grover Cleveland to Lyndon B. Johnson and was friends with many famous figures, including Alexander Graham Bell, Charlie Chaplin and Mark Twain.
Keller was a member of the Socialist Party and actively campaigned and wrote in support of the working class from 1909 to 1921. She supported Socialist Party candidate Eugene V. Debs in each of his campaigns for the presidency.
Keller and her friend Mark Twain were both considered radicals at the beginning of the 20th century, and as a consequence, their political views have been forgotten or glossed over in popular perception. Newspaper columnists who had praised her courage and intelligence before she expressed her socialist views now called attention to her disabilities. The editor of the Brooklyn Eagle wrote that her "mistakes sprung out of the manifest limitations of her development." Keller responded to that editor, referring to having met him before he knew of her political views:
“At that time the compliments he paid me were so generous that I blush to remember them. But now that I have come out for socialism he reminds me and the public that I am blind and deaf and especially liable to error. I must have shrunk in intelligence during the years since I met him...Oh, ridiculous Brooklyn Eagle! Socially blind and deaf, it defends an intolerable system, a system that is the cause of much of the physical blindness and deafness which we are trying to prevent. ”
Keller joined the Industrial Workers of the World (known as the IWW or the Wobblies) in 1912, saying that parliamentary socialism was "sinking in the political bog". She wrote for the IWW between 1916 and 1918. In Why I Became an IWW, Keller explained that her motivation for activism came in part from her concern about blindness and other disabilities:
“I was appointed on a commission to investigate the conditions of the blind. For the first time I, who had thought blindness a misfortune beyond human control, found that too much of it was traceable to wrong industrial conditions, often caused by the selfishness and greed of employers. And the social evil contributed its share. I found that poverty drove women to a life of shame that ended in blindness.”
The last sentence refers to prostitution and syphilis, the former a frequent cause of the latter, and the latter a leading cause of blindness.
Writings
Keller wrote a total of 12 published books and several articles.
One of her earliest pieces of writing, at age 11, was The Frost King (1891). There were allegations that this story had been plagiarized from The Frost Fairies by Margaret Canby. An investigation into the matter revealed that Keller may have experienced a case of cryptomnesia, which was that she had Canby's story read to her but forgot about it, while the memory remained in her subconscious.
At age 22, Keller published her autobiography, The Story of My Life (1903), with help from Sullivan and Sullivan's husband, John Macy. It includes words that Keller wrote and the story of her life up to age 21, and was written during her time in college.
Keller wrote The World I Live In in 1908 giving readers an insight into how she felt about the world. Out of the Dark, a series of essays on socialism, was published in 1913.
Her spiritual autobiography, My Religion, was published in 1927 and re-issued as Light in my Darkness. It advocates the teachings of Emanuel Swedenborg, the controversial mystic who gives a spiritual interpretation of the Last Judgment and second coming of Jesus Christ, and the movement named after him, Swedenborgianism.
Later life
Keller suffered a series of strokes in 1961 and spent the last years of her life at her home.On September 14, 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson awarded her the Presidential Medal of Freedom, one of the United States' highest two civilian honors. In 1965 she was elected to the National Women's Hall of Fame at the New York World's Fair.
Keller devoted much of her later life to raising funds for the American Foundation for the Blind. She died in her sleep on June 1, 1968, at her home, Arcan Ridge, located in Easton, Connecticut. A service was held in her honor at the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C., and her ashes were placed there next to her constant companions, Anne Sullivan and Polly Thompson.
Portrayals
Keller's life has been interpreted many times. She appeared in a silent film, Deliverance (1919), which told her story in a melodramatic, allegorical style.[24]
She was also the subject of the documentaries Helen Keller in Her Story, narrated by Katharine Cornell, and The Story of Helen Keller, part of the Famous Americans series produced by Hearst Entertainment.
The Miracle Worker is a cycle of dramatic works ultimately derived from her autobiography, The Story of My Life. The various dramas each describe the relationship between Keller and Sullivan, depicting how the teacher led her from a state of almost feral wildness into education, activism, and intellectual celebrity. The common title of the cycle echoes Mark Twain's description of Sullivan as a "miracle worker." Its first realization was the 1957 Playhouse 90 teleplay of that title by William Gibson. He adapted it for a Broadway production in 1959 and an Oscar-winning feature film in 1962, starring Anne Bancroft and Patty Duke. It was remade for television in 1979 and 2000.
In 1984, Helen Keller's life story was made into a TV movie called The Miracle Continues.[25] This film that entailed the semi-sequel to The Miracle Worker recounts her college years and her early adult life. None of the early movies hint at the social activism that would become the hallmark of Keller's later life, although The Walt Disney Company version produced in 2000 states in the credits that she became an activist for social equality.
The Bollywood movie Black (2005) was largely based on Keller's story, from her childhood to her graduation. A documentary called Shining Soul: Helen Keller's Spiritual Life and Legacy was produced by the Swedenborg Foundation in the same year. The film focuses on the role played by Emanuel Swedenborg's spiritual theology in her life and how it inspired Keller's triumph over her triple disabilities of blindness, deafness and a severe speech impediment.
On March 6, 2008, the New England Historic Genealogical Society announced that a staff member had discovered a rare 1888 photograph showing Helen and Anne, which, although previously published, had escaped widespread attention. Depicting Helen holding one of her many dolls, it is believed to be the earliest surviving photograph of Anne.
Posthumous honors
In 1999, Keller was listed in Gallup's Most Widely Admired People of the 20th Century.
In 2003, Alabama honored its native daughter on its state quarter.
The Helen Keller Hospital in Sheffield, Alabama is dedicated to her.
There are streets named after Helen Keller in Getafe, Spain and Lod, Israel.
A pre-school for the deaf and hard of hearing in Mysore, India, was originally named after Helen Keller by its founder K. K. Srinivasan.
On October 7, 2009, a bronze statue of Helen Keller was added to the National Statuary Hall Collection, as a replacement for the State of Alabama's former 1908 statue of Jabez Lamar Monroe Curry. It is displayed in the United States Capitol Visitor Center and depicts Keller as a seven year old child standing at a water pump. The statue represents the seminal moment in Keller's life when she understood her first word: W-A-T-E-R, as signed into her hand by teacher Anne Sullivan. The pedestal base bears a quotation in raised letters and Braille characters: "The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched, they must be felt with the heart."[31] The statue is the first one of a handicapped person and of a child to be permanently displayed at the U.S. Capitol.
C. THE MORAL VALUE OF THIS NOVEL

“ so if we have a shortage is not making it an obstacle for us to reach success, but this would make it a challenge to achieve that success.”
D. THE GOODNESS AND THE WEAKNESS
The goodness
This novel could make anyone who reads it will feel more inspired and grateful for what is given by God.
This novel based on true story and will make readers feel more of what is contained in this novel
The weakness
because it makes readers can float and appreciate in this story and producing an inspired person I feel there is no shortage in the real story of this novel.
however, probably is because of my own shortcomings. namely in the writing of the name, spelling or name the wrong place, and if it's because I'm sorry.
I summarize the purpose of this novel is to give a little knowledge and insight to friends and even society at large about the life story that has been done by one of the world "Helen Keller". In addition to his friends and the wider community can also take lessons to be learned from this novel and inspired by "Helen Keller". and I also intended to remind to always be grateful for what has been given by GOD.

That's why Mrs. Sullivan asked permission to stay alone with Helen in a small house which is 500 m from Helen's parents' house.
At first Helen rebel because not used. after Mrs. Sullivan teaches a variety of interesting crafts, Helen was pleased that all the hostility disappeared. Gradually, Helen could not make a necklace of beads. but also can make a scarf. Because Hellen happy finger game, finally Mrs. Sullivan teaches sign language.
Although've learned a lot of vocabulary words, but Helen did not know the meaning, he thinks all this is just a game. Until one day when Mrs. Sullivan took Helen to walk, they approached the water pump. When Helen realizes that all the objects in this world has a name. Originally known this, Helen is very excited and then he tried hard to learn. Mrs. Sullivan very satisfied with the progress of Helen.
After some time Mrs. Sullivan decided to invite Helen to Boston to receive formal education. They went to Mrs. Sullivan is a former school Perskins school. Because here are many deaf-blind student. Helen happily speak with sign language on her friends.
When summer vacation Mrs. Sullivan took Helen to play on the beach while the winter vacation, they went into the mountains to play sled and make the puppets from the snow. Besides love to play, Helen is also serious in the lesson. Successive he studied geography, history, grammar, mathematics, etc..

Helen not only serious when it was taught, at home he is also diligent practice, so when I got home he managed to talk like normal people and make his parents very touched.
After learning to talk, Helen learn more vigorously to realize its ideals into college. After passing a long a difficult journey, in 1900 he successfully passed the test, and went to Harvard. Four years later, Helen managed to graduate with a satisfactory value. Helen also became the first deaf blind people in the world to graduate from college.
Since then Mrs. Sullivan accompany Helen lectured in various places, looking for funding for people with disabilities. Tender after year, they have been around almost the entire United States. As a result of too tired, Mrs. Sullivan became ill and died in October 1936. Despite the deep sadness remains vibrant Helen lectured for the welfare of handicapped people in the world.
In 1945, various countries around the world began to make laws protecting against persons with disabilities.
Political activities
Keller went on to become a world-famous speaker and author. She is remembered as an advocate for people with disabilities, amid numerous other causes. She was a suffragist, a pacifist, an opponent of Woodrow Wilson, a radical socialist and a birth control supporter. In 1915 she and George Kessler founded the Helen Keller International (HKI) organization. This organization is devoted to research in vision, health and nutrition. In 1920 she helped to found the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). Keller and Sullivan traveled to over 39 countries, making several trips to Japan and becoming a favorite of the Japanese people. Keller met every U.S. President from Grover Cleveland to Lyndon B. Johnson and was friends with many famous figures, including Alexander Graham Bell, Charlie Chaplin and Mark Twain.
Keller was a member of the Socialist Party and actively campaigned and wrote in support of the working class from 1909 to 1921. She supported Socialist Party candidate Eugene V. Debs in each of his campaigns for the presidency.
Keller and her friend Mark Twain were both considered radicals at the beginning of the 20th century, and as a consequence, their political views have been forgotten or glossed over in popular perception. Newspaper columnists who had praised her courage and intelligence before she expressed her socialist views now called attention to her disabilities. The editor of the Brooklyn Eagle wrote that her "mistakes sprung out of the manifest limitations of her development." Keller responded to that editor, referring to having met him before he knew of her political views:
“At that time the compliments he paid me were so generous that I blush to remember them. But now that I have come out for socialism he reminds me and the public that I am blind and deaf and especially liable to error. I must have shrunk in intelligence during the years since I met him...Oh, ridiculous Brooklyn Eagle! Socially blind and deaf, it defends an intolerable system, a system that is the cause of much of the physical blindness and deafness which we are trying to prevent. ”
Keller joined the Industrial Workers of the World (known as the IWW or the Wobblies) in 1912, saying that parliamentary socialism was "sinking in the political bog". She wrote for the IWW between 1916 and 1918. In Why I Became an IWW, Keller explained that her motivation for activism came in part from her concern about blindness and other disabilities:
“I was appointed on a commission to investigate the conditions of the blind. For the first time I, who had thought blindness a misfortune beyond human control, found that too much of it was traceable to wrong industrial conditions, often caused by the selfishness and greed of employers. And the social evil contributed its share. I found that poverty drove women to a life of shame that ended in blindness.”
The last sentence refers to prostitution and syphilis, the former a frequent cause of the latter, and the latter a leading cause of blindness.
Writings
Keller wrote a total of 12 published books and several articles.
One of her earliest pieces of writing, at age 11, was The Frost King (1891). There were allegations that this story had been plagiarized from The Frost Fairies by Margaret Canby. An investigation into the matter revealed that Keller may have experienced a case of cryptomnesia, which was that she had Canby's story read to her but forgot about it, while the memory remained in her subconscious.
At age 22, Keller published her autobiography, The Story of My Life (1903), with help from Sullivan and Sullivan's husband, John Macy. It includes words that Keller wrote and the story of her life up to age 21, and was written during her time in college.
Keller wrote The World I Live In in 1908 giving readers an insight into how she felt about the world. Out of the Dark, a series of essays on socialism, was published in 1913.
Her spiritual autobiography, My Religion, was published in 1927 and re-issued as Light in my Darkness. It advocates the teachings of Emanuel Swedenborg, the controversial mystic who gives a spiritual interpretation of the Last Judgment and second coming of Jesus Christ, and the movement named after him, Swedenborgianism.
Later life
Keller suffered a series of strokes in 1961 and spent the last years of her life at her home.On September 14, 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson awarded her the Presidential Medal of Freedom, one of the United States' highest two civilian honors. In 1965 she was elected to the National Women's Hall of Fame at the New York World's Fair.
Keller devoted much of her later life to raising funds for the American Foundation for the Blind. She died in her sleep on June 1, 1968, at her home, Arcan Ridge, located in Easton, Connecticut. A service was held in her honor at the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C., and her ashes were placed there next to her constant companions, Anne Sullivan and Polly Thompson.
Portrayals
Keller's life has been interpreted many times. She appeared in a silent film, Deliverance (1919), which told her story in a melodramatic, allegorical style.[24]
She was also the subject of the documentaries Helen Keller in Her Story, narrated by Katharine Cornell, and The Story of Helen Keller, part of the Famous Americans series produced by Hearst Entertainment.
The Miracle Worker is a cycle of dramatic works ultimately derived from her autobiography, The Story of My Life. The various dramas each describe the relationship between Keller and Sullivan, depicting how the teacher led her from a state of almost feral wildness into education, activism, and intellectual celebrity. The common title of the cycle echoes Mark Twain's description of Sullivan as a "miracle worker." Its first realization was the 1957 Playhouse 90 teleplay of that title by William Gibson. He adapted it for a Broadway production in 1959 and an Oscar-winning feature film in 1962, starring Anne Bancroft and Patty Duke. It was remade for television in 1979 and 2000.
In 1984, Helen Keller's life story was made into a TV movie called The Miracle Continues.[25] This film that entailed the semi-sequel to The Miracle Worker recounts her college years and her early adult life. None of the early movies hint at the social activism that would become the hallmark of Keller's later life, although The Walt Disney Company version produced in 2000 states in the credits that she became an activist for social equality.
The Bollywood movie Black (2005) was largely based on Keller's story, from her childhood to her graduation. A documentary called Shining Soul: Helen Keller's Spiritual Life and Legacy was produced by the Swedenborg Foundation in the same year. The film focuses on the role played by Emanuel Swedenborg's spiritual theology in her life and how it inspired Keller's triumph over her triple disabilities of blindness, deafness and a severe speech impediment.
On March 6, 2008, the New England Historic Genealogical Society announced that a staff member had discovered a rare 1888 photograph showing Helen and Anne, which, although previously published, had escaped widespread attention. Depicting Helen holding one of her many dolls, it is believed to be the earliest surviving photograph of Anne.
Posthumous honors
In 1999, Keller was listed in Gallup's Most Widely Admired People of the 20th Century.
In 2003, Alabama honored its native daughter on its state quarter.
The Helen Keller Hospital in Sheffield, Alabama is dedicated to her.
There are streets named after Helen Keller in Getafe, Spain and Lod, Israel.
A pre-school for the deaf and hard of hearing in Mysore, India, was originally named after Helen Keller by its founder K. K. Srinivasan.
On October 7, 2009, a bronze statue of Helen Keller was added to the National Statuary Hall Collection, as a replacement for the State of Alabama's former 1908 statue of Jabez Lamar Monroe Curry. It is displayed in the United States Capitol Visitor Center and depicts Keller as a seven year old child standing at a water pump. The statue represents the seminal moment in Keller's life when she understood her first word: W-A-T-E-R, as signed into her hand by teacher Anne Sullivan. The pedestal base bears a quotation in raised letters and Braille characters: "The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched, they must be felt with the heart."[31] The statue is the first one of a handicapped person and of a child to be permanently displayed at the U.S. Capitol.
