We Day 2013

Tuesday, October 08, 2013

Today, I had the opportunity to attend We Day in Minnesota. To be honest the main reason I was going was to see the Jonas Brothers. I'm obsessed to put it mildly. From when they (We Day) announced in February that Minnesota would be hosting We Day I was unaware of its success in Canada. We Day's goal is to inspire and to honor youth work. The only thing that is stopping change from occurring is yourself-its not your age or your disadvantages that society has marked you with. It is yourself. You can make change; little or big. Though it was great to see acts such as Carly Ray Jepson and Fifth Harmony, I truly enjoyed listening to the speakers talk about what they have done by devoting their time to helping others. I was truly inspired by their selflessness. Though I won't be able to attend the event next year, I hope to take what I have learned from today's presentation and use it towards my every day life. I will for sure be looking into going on a Me to We trip as well in the near future since I speak both French and Spanish. If you went to We Day-what was your favorite activity/presentation.

I'll leave you with some pictures of the event from today. I hope that you can take what I have learned and apply it to your lives as well. Even if it is a small thing that you do, you never know what its impact might be like.

Until later!
