I saw this film yesterday on PBS. I hope it's available on Netflix or some resource where you guys
can see it. It's called "Defying the Nazis" http://www.defyingthenazis.org/
by Ken Burns.
The Sharps (the couple in the film) so looked beyond themselves and made a passion out of doing something
for humanity. It makes me want to do something in like spirit. I started to do some research this morning about
potential volunteer opportunities. My mind definitely goes 'big picture' but to reason myself out (if that makes sense) - I have to look
at the baby steps or just small contributions I can make. The Sharps were definitely superstars. I also saw 60 Minutes last night
and was inspired by Bloomberg's philanthropy and goals for making a difference.
So I am a Bakery Assistant in a Market and I live in a Board and Care!! :) What can I do? I have done some volunteer
things in the past and I will do some more in the future. I won't knock myself or refrain from trying. It would be great
to find my niche, just because it doesn't all come on all at once, I think I'll just keep knocking at the door (so to speak.) :)

I think if you can, it's important to think about both - what you want to do, and where you want to go with it. His words to the young leaders were "Think less about what you want to be, and more about what you want to do." I will look to find my niche.
First and Foremost, our responsibility is to ourselves to maintain our health!!! That Is Huge!!! You work, you live on your own....?.....is are you comparing yourself to others? if so Why!
