"Courage is the passion to follow your heart." Anonymous This has been my motto for most of my life, although I have not always lived like it was. Following my heart has led me on many adventures and to great fulfillment. When I was in first grade I was furious at the inequities between boys and girls in my school. I wanted to do something about it, but I was 6 years old! After college and 5 years teaching in the public schools, I went to work for a federal grant project, funded to implement Title IX, mandating sex equity in the classroom. WOW! Now I was following my heart and making a difference. As a result, today there are many your women who grew up being able to participate in things I was never allowed to do nor had the opportunity. It brings me great satisfaction to know that I had a hand in that. What is your heart calling you to do? If you had the courage, how would your life be different? How much good could you do? How happy could you be? How much fun could you have? |
