"Look at a day when you are supremely satisfied at the end. It's not a day when you lounge around doing nothing; It's when you've had everything to do, and you've done it." -Margaret Thatcher So many people feel that success is only based on being the greatest, the richest, or the most experienced, but the amazing truth is that success comes in many different forms. Success is positively investing yourself into a goal and accomplishing it. As I enter into many great things, I find that the experiences that resonate with me the most are the ones that cannot function without unity and sacrifice. This past weekend I was able to watch success shine in natural light. A group of amazing young women and I came together to host an incredible pageant. During the night of the event, I watched as each component unfolded and played into its purpose. Hosting a pageant is not just the person introducing themselves behind the microphone. It is first made up of an idea and a want and willingness to finish your goals. Next, you gather support. Surround yourself with people who are passionate about this goal. Then there is work. Work consists of sacrifice, training, disagreements, and dedication. There was a major amount of time poured into this pageant. Over the course of six months, we were able to create an amazing opportunity for many girls at our school. The process involved many late nights after school making phone calls, creating programs, flyers, and posters, and encouraging each other. Each girl had her part and together we succeeded. As a result, we taught ourselves and others the importance of unity and support. Everyone who participated in the pageant, onstage and backstage, left with a greater understanding of self-love and loving others. The journey is easier with company. Remember that you do not have to face everything alone. If you have goals that seem too difficult and unachievable, find a support group. Accomplish them through unity! Sending out positive vibes, I challenge you to connect with someone and dedicate yourselves to your goals for this week! Kaci Hollingsworth
