What is ModelPoetry.com? "Models making a Difference in the Community through Poetry, Gift-giving and by Recognizing Everyday People who are doing Extraordinary Things." Thousands of New Yorkers are excited about what's happening at www.ModelPoetry.com --and it's amazing how many people feel like they must check into the site every day---or they feel like they've missed what's happening in the City. Yes! They check in every day! We are encouraging young people--and people of all ages-- to get involved with Poetry--and to embrace it as a form of self-expression and self-analysis. We're sharing Poetry in the form of writing; as well as Poetry in the form of living a life that's Natural and Organic and healthy for the environment and for ourselves. Part of that Community, is recognizing ordinary people who are not so ordinary. Yes, we feel that it's not only celebrities and people in high-profile positions who should be recognized for their work. From Teachers to Civil Servants, from Technicians to Social Workers-- everyone needs to be heard, and to have a voice! ModelPoetry.com is offering just that! And if one of our Models gave you a gift in the street today, and you're wondering, "Why did I receive this gift?"Here's the answer:There are so many troubling and concerning things going on in our world today. It's time we got together and put our energies towards something good. ModelPoetry.com encourages its Community to come closer together through giving. Yes, we are on a mission! And we tell our readers, if you see someone who is adding something to the Community with their smile, their kindness, their patience....just give them a gift. Yes, even give gifts when you're at work! This will help build up the business that you work for, and that's another way of strengthening our Community. Let's celebrate not just celebrities, and people in the public eye; but each other! Every day! And thousands tune in to see who's being talked about every day! Today we'd like to recognize Quetzal at Revolution Books. Although she would not talk about herself, and only spoke of what Revolution Books is doing, we found out that she is giving so much of who she is to help provide relief in Haiti. And in spending just a few moments with her, it was clear that even with all the attention that she gets for her courage and her volunteer work--and for just being an all-around beautifully bright person-- she always turns the attention to something greater than herself. Thank you Quetzal for the work that you are doing at Revolution Books. And thank you Revolution Books for your efforts and for sharing this wonderful light of a young woman with our Community!
