Tell Us Your Good Deed
One recent good deed involves volunteering for a local neighborhood group. Currently I am in charge of social marketing and taking minutes for the Green Hill Neighborhood Association in Worcester, MA. We plan different activities to bring people together to make a better community.This month we celebrated Earth day by picking up trash in our neighborhood. It feels great to be part of the solution!
Why are you participating?
I'm participating because I believe that there is more good than evil, more love than hate, and negative labels certainly can have an effect on people. You can choose to fit in the box of the label or you can break out of it. Some labels are forced onto you - fight it! Education is the key.

I believe that everyone should be treated in the same equal fashion. I'm not a feminist or a masculinist - I am an equalist. We are all different in our fabulously unique ways and there are things that others do better than I could ever dream of, and vice-versa...Regardless, we should all be treated with equal respect, kindness, and warmth. I had a person working the deli counter thank me because I was the first person who asked her how her day was.
Why are you participating?
Because this is a kind and gentle vision that we should get behind. The world can be filled with mean and ugly things. This is NOT one of them.
