res·o·nance - noun
"Electricity- that condition of a circuit with respect to a given frequency or the like in which the net reactance is zero and the current flow a maximum." This definition of resonance as electricity is a great scientific way of the truth - we are all energy. What frequency do you choose to resonate at?

The Girl Effect

I just came across this great organization - The Girl Effect. Take a moment to check them out. Their mission is clear, as I see it - it's important to pay attention to investments in girls and how they impact economic growth and the health and well-being of communities. The focus is on developing nations but I'd argue it's just as valid in the "developed" world. Here's one stat that hit me: "when women and girls earn income, they reinvest 90 percent of it into their families, as compared to only 30 to 40 percent for a man. I can argue the validity of that stat but by itself what it raised for me is this - the focus on family is key. When I start at home, and then ripple out to my local community and then to the nation and then the world - all of us win. Now, I wonder - what would "The Boy Effect" look like? I have some ideas and wonder what you think is needed? Please enter your comments?
