I had a great weekend! One of the highlights was attending a self-esteem workshop for teenage girls age 16-17! It was such an incredibly inspiring experience. Imagine helping these young women now to realize the importance of healthy self-esteem...
It was so powerful being in a room of supportive women where all the grown women were there to share their experiences to help these younger women. As I listened to different panelists speak I couldn't help but be touched by their stories. My eyes filled with tears many times as they told of their struggles. We all hugged and supported each other vowing to stay in touch and to create more events like this.
Even more inspiring, this event was put on by a high school teacher who cares enough to give of herself, her time and means to help these young women. It motivated me to want to help coordinate a similar event for young men. (I'm a mother of two teenage young men).
Imagine a world in which our young women and young men feel great about themselves and go on to living their best lives and achieving their dreams easily... That's the kind of future I see for the young men and women around me. I want to help make that happen!
Blessings and love, Lorna
