it occurred to me today what is so cool about grassroot movements. the cool thing is you are dealing with the principals. people in charge of everything. they can change a light bulb or the direction of a company in the same breathe. things get done quicker and you feel more a part of what is happening. your input is important and makes a difference. you can see things happening as you speak so to speak. it is actions-speak-louder-than-words in the flesh. unlike a big company that is 46 menu options and continents away from a real voice and all you end up saying is ‘what did you say’? yea grassroots is the place to be if you want to make a difference and get something done. very empowering. Fun for a change.
