Power to the People!

Late last night I received an email that stated the Monday Morning meeting was cancelled and a new meeting was being scheduled for Friday, September 14, 2007 at 7:00 p.m. As it turns out, all five us can be there.

Hallelujah!

I have no idea what transpired to bring this sea change about. All I can say is I'm going to take it as a good sign. I'm cautiously optimistic that perhaps members of our board heard the grumblings of the community and yielded.

If so, than that is a powerful endorsement of your ability to effectuate change in the community. It certainly had nothing to do with me. I've been screaming for a common meeting time for weeks to no avail. It had nothing to do with Margot, because she was screaming for a common meeting time as well. It had everything to do with you - the citizens of Seven Bays.

So, take the moment now to realize your voice is powerful. Don't fail to keep on speaking out, don't fail to continue to question, don't fail to demand answers to your questions.

I look forward to seeing everyone on the 14th.
