Grace Goes to NY: a quick weekend!
I am going to NY RIGHT NOW!!! I'll be there like 25 hours!! :b I'm going mainly to visit my BFF Clara Kim! :)
Yesterday at NEA I ran errands for one of the org's Federal Lobbyists. I was very happy to have tasks and also to go around with him- he invited me a few blocks away to the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation- there is a conference coming up for CBC he was preparing for. I was helping so much that I was invited to attend some of it's events! :D It felt good to be working toward an immediate, tangible cause related to social justice. And I may have gotten a babysitting gig out of it!!!!
Off to the Big Apple! Hasta Luego DC!
Also, wanted to pay some respects to everyone who had to suffer through 9-11. It was a long time ago, but some people may never fully recover from the tragedies of that day. For that I am sorry. I only hope it helps ALL of us learn how to live with more peace, patience, tolerance, anf love for others of all reeds, races, sexualities, etc. That event was conducted from hate, and if we live from something different, I believe the world can always be a better place.
