Our PR class today was all about creating mission statements...both personal and professional ones...its a lot harder than you might think... To write something that signals to the world what you stand for and also to look to when you need inspiration.
You run the risk of having something that baffles others and depending on your own mood; totally confusing yourself...As I struggled to put together the words that I thought represented what I was all about; i realized that it actually required some thought...I wanted my mission statement to actually say something about me that I would like other people to know...and respect...or at the very least...read...
I finally came up with mine...
To never be afraid to stand alone; to be a tree of a thousand stars (or more); to always look within for strength; to love; to hate; and to be honest about it; and to look damn good doing it!
I think that pretty much sums me up...I decided to take a stroll down my favorite street because we all know that if you really need inspiration...123 Sesame Street is THE place to go... and of course I was not disappointed...I thought this lil' clip was very in tune with our project...What do you think?

p.s.---The 'thousand stars' reference is related to my name, which is a species of Bonsai tree (Serissa -as i spelt my name for the first 20 years of my life- thanx for the confusion Mommy...) which is called a tree of a thousand stars...google it!!
