Eliza Lucas Pickney:)

WOW.
What an accomplishment for such a young girl. It deffenitly made me think about that if she hadn't made such a huge impact on indigo and started working with it, then would we have it now? Would someone else have discovered it? How soon would it have been found? Those are all questions that immediatly ran through my mind when I was thinking about how it impacted South Carolina history. What do you think about if she hadnt disscovered the dye or even the indigo. Do you think we would have it today?

Not only did she discover that indigo made dye, but the kind of person she was. I mean really we would never think that maybe me, my family, or my friends would ever be taking care of or running small buissnesses how bizare. She was such a stron woman she took what her dad told her to do and worked with it: she never doubtedwhat her dad told her.

I dont know that if i was in her shoes i couldve done what she did. It is always easier said than done. Im sure now that I would say that im strong enought to do and responsible , but who knows. Haha.

This girl had a major im pact on not just South Carolina, but on me. I think that reading her story would make anyone a stroner woman and want to be more like her because she never gave up and always kept on going which is a great quality.

well i hope to hear back from you soon!
Hope your having a great week:)
