I don't remember what inspired me to do this, but I had this crazy idea: Create a Facebook event and let all your girl friends know how special and wonderful they are. Suddenly, a whole theme involving princesses sprouted in my head. And for a few days, it bloomed and blossomed into something I was super excited to share. So, finally, I mustered up the courage to create the event and I invited just 45 of my girl friends. (I added more as I remembered them, but that was the orginal invite number.) In the space of a week, almost 5000 people have been invited, and at the last count, 1, 142 people are participating.
I never imagined that it would grow to this size. In all honesty, I expected only a few of my friends to even respond. But they responded, and they invited their friends to join. And i'm sure those friends invited their friends, and so on, and so on. For me, it's crazy to think that I have the potential to influence almost 5000 people, and that i'm influencing over eleven hundred right now! It's crazy to think that I have power to make people realize that they are, in fact, princesses. and it's humbling as well. Humbling due to the fact that just one little idea I had grew into something so big. Proof that one person can make a difference. And right now, this person is me.
