I have noticed that at any given time there are 60-80 guests online reading the boards. Awesome!
Until a few weeks ago that is what I was doing too.
I knew I was mad about the crisis facing our country but I didn't feel like there was anything I could really do about.
Finally, I decided to register for this great site. I had noticed that there were nothing but nice, supportive people here sharing ideas and common goals and great information.
I am so glad that I joined!
Last month I was a member of the American public with no voice.
After signing up, I got a little brave and began sending out some emails to candidates running for office. Well, that felt pretty good. So I got a little more brave. Today I took the plunge whole heartedly!
I called 20 senators and voiced my concerns.
At first I was nervous. The first few calls I stumbled a bit. I was unsure. But after I learned that they were there to take my call and would listen I got even more confident. By the time I called the last senator's office I was on a roll! I was a pro!
Today I feel like I did something positive to help my country.
Today I had a voice.
If you are out there reading but aren't sure that you can make a difference, let me tell you,
I did it......and you can too!
Speak up and be heard!
