I wanted to drop by to say my thanks to the Miss California Class of 2013 and to everyone who has participated in the movement to end message board bullying. Notice in the past few weeks how little bullying, mean comments, and hate have showed up on this message board? You truly have done something special here. You are here "speaking" for those who can't or are too scared to. By posting your #60daysoflove posts, it reinforces what this organization is all about: uplifting your fellow competitors so that they may compete to the best of their ability and become better people through each other and the friendships they've been so lucky to form. I hope that each contestant in every state takes a page out of your books and tries to bring this revolution upon their respective state message boards. Imagine if we lived in a pageant world where young women competing for the title of Miss State or even Miss America can come and get advice, uplifting messages, encouragement, praise, and love. Thank you all for making that a possibility. You have given me and many others hope that this world we love so much can rid itself of the hate it has been recently infected with. If any of you need anything, anything at all, please do not hesitate to ask me. You know where to find me. :)

[> Subject: Thank you, Taylor for your support! The girls in the class of 2013 really bonded well and we all hate to see others bash our dear friends just because they can hide behind the keys of a message board. We appreciate you spreading the word of our story and our efforts to put an end to bullying! We hope that others can learn from our effort to spread the love and make the message boards a safer place. As contestants, we try to stay away from here, but like a moth to the flame we are always drawn back here. We want people to know that we see what mean things people say and it can be really detrimental to one's feelings. We ask everyone to only post things that you would actually say to someone in person and own your words! If you wouldn't say it to someone's face, then you shouldn't say it at all! Again, thank you for sharing our message!! #standuptobullying

[> Subject: Taylor, thank you for your kind words. Somebody posted on Guru about this movement the California girls are starting. But Guru deleted it like it was some foul post. It would be nice if this California movement was seen and heard about by the other states and perhaps the other girls could start it too. Any suggestions how we can get this out there to the other states?
