Me Scurvy

Why Tala Rocks Why Tala rocks: I have known Tala since I became involved in the Pagan community here in Jackson- a little over a year now. Here is why she rocks: Tala knows people. In many instances, Tala has really had a keen intuition about what people in the community want, what their motivations and goals are, and what they aren't necessarily saying out loud. Aside from just having a lot of experience with people and pagan communities, I believe Tala is blessed with the gift of great intuition, and I really admire that. Tala's intuition goes hand in hand with her no-nonsense attitude, which I really respect. Tala doesn't mince words, she minces people- in only the best ways, of course :) I can always count on Tala telling me what she thinks. I can't always count on liking what she has to say, but that is where the respect part comes in- rarely have I met someone who is so thoroughly themselves, and also courageous enough to show that self to the world. I would rather have an honest friend who lets me know her true mind than a "yes man" who just agrees to agree, and if you know Tala, you know she is the former, not the latter. Finally, Tala is committed to her community. I have seen a lot of shitty things happen in the Jackson pagan community, but Tala keeps coming back to do what needs to be done. I interpret this behavior as that of a committed leader, and also as the behavior of someone who has faith that quality will eventually come out on top. Thanks for always being there, Tala!
