But what I liked the most was your own awareness that the fact of awareness by itself, without action, is futile. It is great that you urge young people to be aware of needs in their communities and take action. Using your sunshades metaphor, is your awareness colored by the very lens of your sunshade? Do you need clear lenses to achieve greater awareness clarity??? Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I look forward to your next piece.Al Mariamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00383286894927183001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3962937750467768504.post-8942269084866315582010-08-17T21:29:15.927-07:002010-08-17T21:29:15.927-07:00Great post! <3

During the AP hurricane, I always try to remind myself that I am truly blessed to have access to not only a free education - but to college level courses that some schools don't even offer. When I'm angry or stressed, I thank the universe that I am capable of such complex emotion. That I'm able to sit and think is such an amazing miracle in itself! <br /><br />BTW, although this is my first comment, I have read every single one of your posts! I think this blog was a wonderful idea and I love feeling like I can pick at your brain! :) Thanks for sharing your positivity and insight with all of us.<br />I love you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
