Laying here in a beautiful hotel in Seattle, I suddenly can't sleep and I know exactly why. Yesterday, I found myself in a moment where what I believe in so strongly was shot down. And I found that I got so upset about it that I forgot to remember that it's my project, it's what I really want to do and it's what I believe in, no one else. It's something that I desperately feel is necessary and something that is crucial in our society.
I guess I've realized that I shouldn't have gotten upset, but rather pushed harder to stay with MY idea. And honestly, maybe it was good that the decision was made that way, because now I am stronger in my belief in my project and now I am ready to push everything past the limit for this project that I believe so deeply in.
It's important in life to follow your heart and maybe that means going against what people tell you is right, but if you know their wrong, I truly believe it's an obligation then to do what YOU think is right. Sometime people won't open their minds, sometimes they won't listen and sometimes, they are rushing so fast through something that there is no time to really stop and think about it, and the rushed decision becomes fact. For me, I'm not ready to give up on my idea because someone didn't have any time to stop and think about it, I'm not ready to give up on something that I truly believe in because of ignorance on any level or because no one really thought about all it could encompass. I truly believe that I can do this and that I can do it in a way no one else has, and that, is pure fact.

I'm really proud of you, and after talking to you yesterday I am convinced you truly understand your project the best and are at a far better place to judge if its right or wrong. I think its a great idea.
