How Do You Cheer Like That?

I get asked a lot "How do you cheer like that?" "Why do you cheer like that?" And I have decided to address the question, full on.

I am not cheering for just our football or basketball teams. I'm just not. Yes, they are great and school spirit is the most rockin' thing ever. It brings people together and it just really make high school great. But I don't cheer just cause #school_spirit

I cheer for the outcast kid who doesn't think that they can. I cheer for the kid who is in a dark place and feels trapped. I cheer for the kid who is maybe not even at the game because they have work, or responsibility. I cheer for the kid whos grades don't get up to par every time. For the kid on the sidelines, thinking "I couldn't do that". For the kid who feels useless and small. For the kid that thinks they are too shy.

I cheer because there are kids in the world that feel like they don't have voices. Because they are shoved in the darkness by others, and are not allowed to prove that they can do something amazing. I'm just one kid. I'm just Georgia. Just one Georgia, but I can make a difference. I may be just one light. Maybe I can be the flashlight you need though. Whenever I start to feel tired, I start to want to sit down and stop. I just remember. I'm making a difference. 

You can make a difference too! We can all be flashlights, lighting the world together. Light up. You do have a voice. I know this was a shorter blog post, but I feel like sometimes I use a lot of words to say nothing. 





If you have questions, comments, remarks, opinions, anything. Let me know.

  1. Short but sweet!! You do make a difference and I have seen kids that usually just lurk come quietly forward and clap, & yes, even yell for our team. I'm really proud of how genuine your excitement is and how you inspire others <3 You are a cheer "LEADER"!!

  2. You do make a difference, and not just by cheering, but by the way you share your thoughts (long or short) here. And you share them just by being you and doing what you do everyday.
