Day 233

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world.  Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has." - Margaret Mead

These last two years have been amazing.  Quitting my job and going back to school was a big decision but not one that I regret.  I met some really amazing people.  The people that get MPAs and MPPs are truly inspiring people.  Government and nonprofit work isn't glamorous.  The jobs don't pay a lot and usually only your failures make the news.  But for two years I went to school with people who understood that while they could only make a small difference, it was a difference worth making.  

So, to my classmates, in the words of Elle Woods, WE DID IT!
