This will be short.
I'm alive, happy, strong & determined.
God is great, I am learning a ton about myself, my passion(s) and who I am aiming to become.
I plan on getting back into writing often, so your patience and grace is appreciated.
Much love to all of you,
Bren
Found you through Sometimes Sweet's Tattoo Tuesday post. You are mighty cute and your reason for writing is in line with my own feelings about writing. And I think it's super cool that you work for a non-profit organization. That's something I've been thinking a lot about lately; perhaps starting my own :)
ReplyDeleteAnyway, love the tats. I too want many more, especially a sleeve!
Hope to see more posts from you soon,
J.Lynn
@J.Lynn - Thank you for your comment, you're too sweet! Isn't Danyelle's blog the greatest?
ReplyDeleteI just browsed your blog, and I admire how healthy you are! That is something I truly want to work on. What kind of non-profit would you be interested in going into, or starting?
I will start following you!
Thanks,
Brenda
Oh yes, I love reading her posts.
ReplyDeleteI'll tell you, being healthy all the time is definitely hard work, especially when life gets a little busy. I'm just now starting to find a balance that I'm comfortable with.
I haven't really thought of what kind of non-profit to be apart of; some causes I feel deeply passionate about are world hunger, human trafficking, and education. So I've thought of Feed America as a start, or Not For Sale. I guess I really just need to start researching a little more; I have no clue where to start! :)
Recently, I had an idea about starting a non-profit organization geared towards rehabilitating drug/alcohol addicts, the depressed, and the overweight, because I feel like they could all be treated by the same things.
How did you get started in a non-profit organization?

@J.Lynn -
ReplyDeleteThat is great that you have a passion for the "needy", I think that is a rare characteristic to have within our generation, so don't lose that!
My mom actually works for a non-profit as well, it is called SPIN (Serving People In Need) and they strive to bring homeless off the streets and into a stable environment. My mom actually is a drug and alcohol counselor for the homeless that are also addicts. It's a wonderful thing to see people completely turn their life around. Sometimes people just need a little help to get things started!
I got involved with the non profit I work for (LiNK) a few years ago, when they came to my church to do a film screening. I was floored to find out about the human rights crisis in North Korea, and I was shocked that I had never heard about it before. I began traveling for LiNK, touring around the US sharing a film about these human rights violations and giving presentations to educate people. It was an amazing experience!
Sorry, that was a mouthful! If you ever have any questions about the non profit field, feel free to ask me! Also, if you're curious about what LiNK is doing, you can go to our website: www.linkglobal.org
Thanks again for reading, have a great night!
Brenda
