The more I learn about Haiti and after my first of hopefully many visits, my vision for the country is slowly taking shape, it's changing, is maturing. Going to the UN for my country was a moment I will never forget. Surrounding by many passionate Haitians and friends of Haitians. My focus now is bringing people together in my circles, to help them commit to helping Haiti not just with money but with their time. My husband and I are looking deep within. This may be our life’s work. A lot of "somebody's" have got to do it. Why not us? As far as my voice is concerned...I feel like a play "Oprah" in my little. When I share my ideas...for the silliest of things...people listen. I am humbled by that. I look up to the sky whenever I get a call and someone is looking for my input, my opinion. I look up to God and say to myself, what am I to do with this? Why am I in the middle of this? I am not so great. I know it’s not me but God and him carrying out his will. I am humbled that he would consider using me and so many others for his purpose.
I want to use my voice to make a real difference now. Life is truly short and not a minute is promised...I am a visionary now and all the more in light of the devastation of my mother and fathers country; the land of my ancestors.
