Why am I in a sorority?

People ask why am I in a sorority

and I try and explain all the things

a sorority is and they can not see.

A sorority is more then letters on a sweatshirt, I say.

More then traditional songs, a golden pin, rituals,

an obligation, or a way of life.

A sorority is learning about people, and about yourself.

A sorority is giving without expecting a return.

A sorority is receiving without knowing it.

A sorority is earning respect from others, as well as for yourself.

A sorority will not solve your problems.

But I have made good friends and found confidence there, to help me take life on step at a time.
