I am having a hard time putting my words together right now so pardon me if this sounds "aggressive" or what not.

I am not a person who budgets well bottom line. I am a person who has hella student loans, car note, etc. I know that most of us share those burdens as well.

I HATE it when a soror comes down on another soror for not staying financial or for not registering to go to conventions and conferences. Yes I am committed to DELTA just as most sorors are. My commitment might not be on the level of others but I have a commitment to Delta that those who KNOW me understand. However, I am not now nor will I ever be a soror who talks down to sorors who don't always stay within the FINANCIAL fold of DELTA. Instead of knocking a soror for what she does not do FOR DELTA or IN DELTA, embrace her because she is a soror and continue (or begin) to encourage her to remember her commitment to Delta and the passion that lead her to Delta. If her passion for Delta has waned, comments about financial responsibility and bragging about what you do will not necessarily draw her back to the torch.
