I am but a drop in a bucket of talent, I feel like a lazy bum compared to some of the people I have seen within IYJL, they seem normal like everyone else and then bam, I receive an e-mail and apparently they are involved in some very interesting outreach project involving senators or they are involved in drafting some of the bills that may eventually become laws and moving entire groups of people. I have just become a member but seeing what they do only motivates me to do much more, so certainly, if you have the ability to get in contact with such organizations within your area, and there is a map on this website, try and do so, and see what you can do to help. You are certainly not alone, there are supposed to be something like a million dreamers out there, tens of thousands that graduate from high school every year who have grown in this culture and know this culture rather well. (at the very least I know this culture far better than I know the country where I was born, as I have mentioned many times, I cannot even understand my cousins when they speak, and its funny and stuff, but yeah... not the culture I identify with)
