Blue Legacy and H2O for Life

Today was one of the most interesting days i've had in a very long time. Some members of the H2O committee went to Target Field and met Alexandra Cousteau and her Blue Legacy water crew. We talked with her about some of the amazing things she and her team are doing, and H2O got some interviews with her. It was a surreal experience. Going out on the actual field and feeling the grass between your toes is something not everyone gets to do. The suite we were in was amazing. It was so nice and open, and it was right above the field. We had to leave pretty quickly to go to Dow Chemicals, but I was so thankful that i got that opportunity, and that H2O was helped. I love the H2O orginazition, and anything I can do to help I will absolutely do. Alexandra has done so many wonderful things for our world, and she's shown that women have a huge impact on our world. Men, its time to move over. We can both be in the spotlight, and we can live in complete harmony. Men and women are equal, they can each do amazing things. One thing that Alexandra said that really hit me was how people told her she couldn't do so many things, and she said screw it. She ended up doing what people thought was impossible. There really is no such thing as impossible. If you set your mind to something, nothing can stop you. No matter what anyone says you can change the world. Alexandra is living proof of that. If you take anything from reading this, know this: YOU can make a difference. YOU CAN!
