Reengaging

I’ve been a bit delayed on posting. The past few hours have been spent working on the house and then working to get packed up and back home. We drove 11 hours straight through and returned home around 3 A.M. The day started quickly with activities. It’s now after midnight, and I haven’t even unpacked one bag. I did, however, get to listen to my girlfriend’s friend tonight tell me about her daughter. Her daughter has been accepted into a master’s program for international studies into some of the most prestigious universities in the country including Harvard. This young woman has spent the last years in various African countries helping the impoverished and abused, and her stories are inspiring. I won’t go into too much detail, but it makes me ask myself what am I really contributing to society, to those in need. I know that I have a full time 24/7 job caring for my own family, but am I doing enough, really? Oh, my mind is racing….
