Changing the World

I have been following a number of blogs for almost a year now, with Healthy Tipping Point being one of them.  I really like this one in particular because not only does Caitlin focus on health and fitness, but she also blogs about other inspirational things like Operation Beautiful and The Dream Share Project.  Operation Beautiful was founded by Caitlin, and the premise behind it is to post anonymous notes in public places for women to find.  An example of a potential note would be “You are worth it, you are beautiful!.”  I highly recommend you read Caitlin’s story and the story of those individuals Operation Beautiful has impacted and inspired.  I promise it will change the way you think about things. 🙂

The Dream Share Project is a youth empowerment program that I learned about through Healthy Tipping Point.  Alexis and Chip, the founders of Dream Share, traveled around the U.S. talking to young people who are chasing after their dreams and making them realities.  In fact, they interviewed Caitlin about Operation Beautiful (check out the interview on their home page)!  It’s such a cool idea!!!  I suggest you take a look at their blog to learn more about their inspirational story.

With so many negative things happening in the world, it’s so nice to learn about people who are making VERY positive contributions to their communities, the country, and even the world!  I hope you all are as inspired as I was after learning about these projects.  Together, we can make a difference!

Please share your thoughts on these organizations or others like them. 🙂
