I participated in serving as a volunteer on the Worcester Arts Council because I had a passion and love of Worcester and wanted to help my community.

People often make judgments on first glance and have to be convinced otherwise by interacting with the person a while. And some people don't even interact, so changing their mind isn't even an option. That's sad.
The older I get, the less comfortable I am with labels - both for myself and others. Life is about change and evolution and eventual dissolution. So we must learn to unlearn, let go, and offer freedom to others and ourselves.
It's a good cause and I like what it stands for. I've been judged wrongly because I'm shy, because I choose to have tattoos, because I was young when I had my boys. It's no fun to be judged on outwards appearances.
I participated on a very hot day in Worcester, Massachusetts. I was with my six year old granddaughter and wanted her to not feel shy so I decided to jump right in when asked. The word evil was interesting. I wasn't sure what it was all about and was curious. What the hell!
To show people that you can NEVER judge a book by its cover. I want to show my two daughters that they can be proud of who they are, no matter what others say or how they may be judged. Hopefully, when they are older, they won't be discouraged by being different and independent.
I like the No Evil Project concept that promotes the fact that what makes us special and unique are our differences!
It is a cool idea and I am not evil. Evil gets too much attention; it's time to focus on the good.
