Fortuitous Bouncing

I confess, along with most of you, to have not known or (sadly) cared much about what was going on in Egypt the past 30 years. However, I’ve been greatly fascinated by a nation’s people forcing democracy into place. I hope the Middle East is never the same because of the past 3 weeks and I love that every oppressive leader has had to think “what if this happened here” at some point. Here’s a great quote from Obama’s speech yesterday afternoon after Mubarak had resigned: “For Egypt, it was the moral force of non-violence that bent the arch of history toward justice.”

Over the past year I’ve been helping run social media for The Mentoring Project, but this past week was my last. A combination of me not having time/energy and them needing to make budget cuts led to the change. If you’re ever looking for a non-profit to support, I’d look there before anywhere else.
