> I really think in my heart that I can help make a difference, that I can do something on a small scale to help this world. I don't want my existence here to be purely and solely about me, learning for myself, gaining for myself. I want to help people. I want to see change. I want something to happen. And not for fame or money, but for the purpose of making this world a better place.And from what I've seen of you, you do this. :) You do extend yourself to make a difference in people's lives.
At the risk of being sent to the Faith board, I've always liked the idea that we were placed here on earth to each do our part to help perfect the world.
It may be a stretch goal, as my husband would say, but it's still worthwhile to act as though it is achievable.
