[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I used to want to work in policy to " change the world." I really thought that I could make a difference. Now I am older and much more cynical. It seems that nothing gets done and politics always trumps. I am thinking about more direct ways to help people -- teacher maybe? I am looking for ideas, especially with respect to children, but would love to hear from anyone who feels this way from their job. Thanks for some inspiration![/quote] PP is right - it's very hard to "change the world." Trying to do that is sometimes described as attempting to "boil the ocean." It's just too big and your arms aren't big enough. Except for a handful of folks who fate seems to find at random, all we can do is make the change in the 'world' that we can reach. Even if that is just one person. Rock On![/quote]
