I think it is good for us — any of us, regardless of what our passionate task is — to reflect on the WHY of what we do.
Have you read any Mary Pipher (Reviving Ophelia, The Shelter of Each Other etc.)? She has written a book called (interestingly enough) Writing to Change the World. It is wonderful, and I think you might like it. Cheers!

Not what I meant. I meant your list seems very you. It also seems clear and honest. Anyway, whatever, I’m trying to say I really like it. thanks for posting.
