[Colorado-talk] Why are YOU a Federationist?

[Eddie K. Thieszen-Culp]

Greetings:

I am a federationist because The NFB taps into something very deep within 
me - the yearning to be part of something larger than myself.  In fact,  the 
federation does for me what soil does for plants because it nurtures me , 
and enables me to grow and to blossom.



The federation has given me the confidence to embrace challenges with an 
attitude of not allowing the fear to smother out the fire but allowing the 
fire to burn away the fear.



Thank you,

Eddie K. Thieszen - Culp M.A., CRC, CVE, NCC
