8.12.11 // the help

Just got back from seeing The Help. Man, am I fired up!


I swear, if I ever had a past life it was as a Civil Rights Activist. I think that there's an activist that lives in each of us.. sometimes it beckons to a call.. even if that call is a whisper.. while other times it's buried so deep that it can't hear at all.

Mine is definitely in ear-shot and just waiting for something to call it's name. I definitely feel strongly about a lot of issues, but I'm never really sure what step is best to take to rally for change. I feel like I've been doing a lot of work on myself lately. I think I've come to a time when I'll start putting my energy into something bigger than myself.. Finally pull out that activist inside me and put her to work.
