Discussion and airing and refining of insights and outlooks is a good place to start and evolve from Phill5. Good luck on your journey of engagement and positive change, on whichever path you choose.

Here's an interesting quote to ponder from the book "Ambition, the Secret Passion" by Joseph Epstein: "We do not choose to be born. We do not choose our parents. We do not choose our historical epoch, or the country of our birth, or the immediate circumstances of our upbringing. < though some would aruge that > We do not, most of us, choose to die: nor do we choose the time or conditions of our death. But within all this realm of choicelessness, we do choose how we shall live: courageously or in cowardice, honorably or dishonorably, with purpose or in drift. We decide what is important and trivial in our life. We decide that what makes us significant is either what we do or what we refuse to do. But no matter how indifferent the universe may be to our choices and decisions, these choices and decisions are ours to make. We decide. We choose. And as we decide and choose so our lives are formed. In the end, forming our own identity is what ambition is all about."
