I remember how as a child, my mom told me to mind my P's and Q's. She taught me to ask before taking, say sorry when you've made a mistake, and not to lie because God will get mad (her words verbatim).

I recieved a nomination not too many hours ago and I decided to check out the site, perhaps join, read about the fellowships program and write  a blog entry.

So a little about who I am... 

I am currently in Prague, Czech Republic with the Global Institute for Leadership and Civic Developement (I'll plug that here: http://www.globalleaders.info/). The purpose of the program is to develop leadership skills and understand what it truly it means to be a global citizen  (not to mention we also get to experience the gorgeous city of Prague!) There's about 40 students and we are from all over the world. I've only been here a week and it's an experiene unlike any other.

The 2007 Summit is off to an amazing start. I have enjoyed meeting with future leaders who are busting with powerful ideas and energy. The 2007 YP4 Fellows have impressed me with their optimism for a better world, their appreciation and respect for our planet, and their understanding of the crucial need for a broad, inclusive social justice movement.
