Biography
Warm, gregarious, playful, talkative and impulsive. Live life to its fullest, and any difficulty along the way is viewed as a stimulating challenge. Consider myself a non-conformist and rather innovative. Strive to inspire and energize others and think my enthusiasm for new ways of doing things tends to be contagious. Never tire of coming up with original possibilities, which I think are usually insightful and even ingenious.
My Purpose
Everyone has had times in their life where their not so sure how they are going to survive. They experience one negative event after another, and these things continue to drag them further and further down. These things happen and I believe we need to be there to help others through these tough times. Help them get back on their feet, which is exactly why I work for Micro Giving.
"Giving is good for the soul"
I believe every little thing we do, no matter how small will make a difference. Plus, you never know what gestures you make will inspire someone to go out of their way and do something for someone else. Imagine... what if everyone simply made small gestures of kindness throughout their lives, we would start a Viral spreading of goodness and happiness around the world. Do you believe?
Compliment: I wish to compliment you on all of your hard work and determination you put into this site. I also want to say that you are amazing, you are more than a MG staffer, you are a friend and inspiration to many, myself included. Thanks for just being you :)
Compliment: hi Michelle,I am impressed with your philosophy of life. You are so young;where did this come from in your life? I believe each person with a few extra dollars can make a big difference ,multiple $1.00 by one million people.I don't understand why microgiving isn't rapidly building.It's so easy, and when you give ,you know where the money goes ,even if it went to someone who was scamming ,when it's a few dollars ,I have always said,if they need it that bad,what the difference.So many people give to nonprofits,and other chairities ,they give large donations ,when if they would take the time to learn about the individual,they may be suprised when that person is able to do much more with the money.Stay Great.
Compliment: Michelle is a loving, caring and awesome girl!
She does so much for the people of this great community and I just wanted to make sure she know how much we appreciate her!!
Favorite Quote
There is nothing more difficult, more doubtful of success, nothing more challenging to manage, than the creation of a new way of thought and action. The initiator of a new way of doing things incurs strong resistance from all those that profit from keeping things just the same and finds only half-hearted participants among those that will benefit most from the change. -Machiavelli
