Work that Wouldn't be a Job

Following are two well written articles, both regarding change, but only one about progress. This kind of work is what I find palpable as a career, rather than a job.

"New Policy Permits Asylum for Battered Women"

"Evil Spirits: Sioux Falls, S.D."
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/07/16/opinion/16abourezk.html

Occasionally, when I'm feeling particularly overwhelmed, I have to remind myself that I'm working towards setting myself to make the kind of impact that an overachiever may be proud of. I never want to be satisfied, but confident enough to continue working with vigor.

Happy birthday Hila! I LOVE YOU FACCIA-FACE!
