Susan L. - Austin, TX

A progressive is someone who considers what is best for the circle of humanity FIRST--...who knows that growth is often painful and involves sacrifice but certainly not as painful as watching a few select people take more than their share and then go after more...who sets aside a personal agenda to serve the whole...who chooses compassion and what will serve our children's children's children...who's heart aches when seeing injustice...who knows that creative freedom will bring answers that serve everyone...who celebrates someone else's victory if it serves goodness...who considers all sides before taking sides...who stands up with caring and concern for all humans...who celebrates diversity and inclusivity...who says, 'I am unique--so are you--let's expand our creative expression and include everyone so we can be amazed at how beautiful and innovative our great country can be at serving the hearts of all humans.'
