In case you are wondering if the „I am Europe“ initiative that you are considering to share or to promote is the idea of some kind of organization or a political party, well – it is not!
I am a „normal“ person that has always felt blessed to live under the peace and prosperity that a united Europe has granted us. When the UK – a country that I have called home for more than 3 years – decided to leave us, I was utterly heartbroken!
I felt that something had been taken away from me and much worse – potentially from my children…
Nobody is saying that the European Union is perfect – just like everything else, it does have its flaws, and probably many of them… However, I believe that its benefits greatly outnumber those flaws.
Therefore I have decided that in times when many choose to focus on the negative, I will try to create as much positive momentum for this Union as I possibly can.
For it is that very Union that I believe will ensure my children’s ability to grow up and live with the same opportunities, safety, diversity and values that I – until now – have taken for granted.
In light of the geopolitical developments of late, I am convinced that Europeans, despite all our problems and differences, should stand CLOSER TOGETHER than ever before.
If you feel the same, then join me in saying: I still believe in Europe!
I am convinced that every voice counts.
Mine.
Yours.
Let them be heard.
TOGETHER WE ARE STRONGER!
