What Egypt showed me.
So I had just come from teaching two lectures on Global Competition at Gloucester Community College when I heard the news that Egypt's president had stepped down. I don't believe that i understood the magnitude of what happened until I was at the Winslow Diner watching the reactions of the Egyptians on CNN.
18 days these individuals stood on their convictions and decided to not be moved until action had taken place. 18 days may have seemed like a long time while they were going through the protest, but in retrospect, it was just a little over two weeks before they received what they had asked for. You know what that said to me? Diana, pull it together! Sometimes I can't wait 24 hours before thinking that I should have something that I requested.
The real question that I asked was, where is my faith? My faith in what I believe, my faith in that what I am requesting will be granted and that I am deserving and my faith that things will all work out for my good. Huh, yes, Diana certainly needs to pull it together.
