Years after high school and two degree's later I finally get it. If you want to change the world you have to be that change. My initial interest in volunteering was sparked a couple of years ago while I was in graduate school. Two years after I completed my graduate degree I found myself wondering what was next. I had alot of time on my hands for the first time in years and nothing to do. As corny as it sounds I looked back on my young life and all that I had accomplished and felt the need to give back somehow. I was finally in a place where I saw the world for what it was. It was full of people and problems screaming for help. So I decided that I should stop waiting on the world to change and do something about it. At the beginning of this year I decided to start volunteering twice a month for six months in various places doing various things to reach out and help the community around me and plant that seed that was in my heart for years. Thus my journey has began : )
