The other day I saw a Georgia Right to Life billboard and it reminded me of a time earlier this year when I was talking to Sen. Lester Jackson about comp. sex ed. He told me that the people he works with do not care to look at the statistics, they have a mindset in which they see it as wrong and they are not considering changing what they believe. It hit me, there are people that no matter what are unwilling to listen and will never change. And to change that type of person may be impossible, but there are so many others who want to know the facts and are willing to open up. Luckily groups ie AFY are there to help. I have loved being a part of AFY because I know I am a part of an organization that is working on real change and doing real things which impact real lives. Though I will not be with AFY next year, I have learned things which I will never forget and I will continue doing what I can to help put an end to this battle. There are people who don't change, but this group can say they did all they could to make that change... and when it comes it will be because of all the people who stayed with it and didn't give up.
