Why I’m Here

I am originally from Louisiana and now live in Texas. In my relocating I have also lived and worked in various other states such as Georgia, Florida,Colorado,Illinois, and California.  The one consistent thing I have noticed is that Americans are long overdue for change, though we are still a society that is looking to someone else to make the changes that best represents us.  Well, I have never been a "wall-flower", fully understanding that the only way the change can be made is if I have a hands on part in it.  Being a part of the most vocal and active generation in society, we are fully equipped to turn the tables in all aspects of what happens today and I plan to be sitting at the head of that table.....
