They may have heard of other places but I want to the chance to show them. I hope to go overseas & bring some stuff back with me. I want to impact my community is that sort of way, so, hopefully more of my people will try to get off the Rez & find something bigger or help others get off as well. I do understand that they may not want to though. I know I didn't want to leave but I didn't have a choice...& I see it as sort of a blessing in a way because now I want to go everywhere & do everything & I don't want them to miss out on anything. I also hope to help out with suicide prevention because it is rampant on Indian Reservations, especially mine.
Yeahh....thats it. Its not much, but I don't know what else to do.
At least it's something though :]

Awesome. Which nation?
