Do more...be more
Lately, I've been feeling like I need to do more with life. Even though I don't have a whole lot of free time I'd like to give what I can to some organization/person/etc (Let's not get it twisted, I am and will always be financial and active in my sorority. I know where my loyalty lies). I'd love to be a mentor to a young woman but I just don't feel like I can be consistent. Especially as much as I travel for work and other obligations. Anywho, so I got it in my mind that I wanted to join the National Council for Negro Women (NCNW). I thought, "Yes, this would be a great way to network and help the community." Right? So, I go on the NCNW website and find that there are 2 sections (like chapters) in my area. I'm thinking, "Oh this is awesome." So I email the Presidents of both sections and *drum roll* both of the emails bounced back. Say what?! C'mon people...do better. Just when I try to help "my people"...they disappoint me once again. So, the search continues. Maybe I'll try NAACP or the Urban League.
