I had a hospice refuse to train me on their phone system. They said they
didn't have the time. Now sometimes these phone systems are inaccessible,
but I don't even know if this one was. They used me for little. I wanted to
be a hospice chaplain, andvolunteer chaplain is about all I can do, but it
didn't work out at either of the two hospices that I tried. May try one
more.

Hi Everyone, 
The question of drivers license is no big deal. If you have a state ID it
should be fine. You want to work in the office and not to drive to customer
homes. 
If you can get to a place, you can do customer service by answering the
phones and giving information.

Jordan:

Do you know of any particular agencies you would like to offer your
services?

Maybe you should look at organizations that you really believe in or that
you
have some association with already.

Several times you've mentioned transportation being an issue for you.  What
about looking close to home.  Maybe there is something right down the street
or
around the corner.

Now I can't remember the woman's name from the conference call, but she
suggested helping a neighbor or your church.  Her point was that service can
be
very small acts of kindness; it doesn't have to be a large organized effort.

What about visiting with a senior, many of them are lonely and would love to
have someone to talk to.  There may be a senior center or adult day care
near
you that would love to jhust have you come and visit with the clients.
Maybe a
church would know of some elderly persons that you could visit in the home. 
There are so many possibilities; be creative and don't give up.

Nella

> >>>>> What?s the Most Important Question in Your Life?
> >>>>>
> >>>>> Aaron Schwartz, the famous programmer and internet activist who died
> >>>>> before
> >>>>> his time, said: ?You should be asking yourself all the time what is
> >>>>> the
> >>>>> most
> >>>>> important thing in the world I could be working on right now, and if
> >>>>> you
> >>>>> are
> >>>>> not working on that, why aren?t you??

working
> >>>>> at
> >>>>> a
> >>>>> company ?changing the world.? I don?t want to rain on their parade,
> >>>>> but
> >>>>> developing another instant messaging service is not ?changing the
> >>>>> world.?
> >>>>> It?s not that these people are intentionally neglecting the larger
> >>>>> issues
> >>>>> in
> >>>>> the world, or that they don?t care.
> >>>>> I believe it?s because some people don?t yet know what is important
to
> >>>>> them
> >>>>> and what they can do about it.
> >>>>> How do you move from skimming news headlines to caring about the
> >>>>> issue?
> >>>>> And
> >>>>> then from caring about the issue to wanting to make it what you want
> >>>>> to
> >>>>> spend your time working on?
> >>>>> How to Find Yourself and Change the World
> >>>>> I encourage people to take this into their own hands. To learn about
> >>>>> yourself and what you are capable of. Take the initiative and open
> >>>>> yourself
> >>>>> up to the broader experiences of the world?to experiences that might
> >>>>> be
> >>>>> new,
> >>>>> exciting, emotional, and sometimes physically uncomfortable.
> >>>>> One of the most meaningful experiences of my life was volunteering
at
> >>>>> a
> >>>>> human rights nonprofit and interviewing refugees in a camp on the
> >>>>> Thai-Burma
> >>>>> border. There was no running water, no electricity.  We sat on the
> >>>>> bare
> >>>>> floors of their thatched huts.  I listened to their stories of their
> >>>>> lives.
> >>>>> Family members would pick up the guitar and take turns singing
> >>>>> traditional
> >>>>> folk songs.
> >>>>> I came back to my last year of Harvard Law School and felt no
> >>>>> temptation
> >>>>> to
> >>>>> go to the recruiting events of the big law firms.  I was one of the
> >>>>> very
> >>>>> few
> >>>>> who did not have a job upon graduation.   I continued to write and

> >>>>> something that was important to me, that I could call my work.

make

> >>>>> Be Curious?Say Yes
> >>>>> If you are invited to visit a low-income neighborhood in Oakland and
> >>>>> tour
> >>>>> their community garden, do it. Go and don?t be afraid to talk to the
> >>>>> people
> >>>>> who live there and learn about their community. If the Rainforest

> >>>>> Network has a public talk about orangutans in the Sumatran
rainforest

> >>>>> a

> >>>>> Do you have an interest in children?  Volunteer with CASA, a
national

see

at

> >>>>> local free clinic that serves the poorest of our society?help people
> >>>>> get
> >>>>> screened for high blood pressure or get training to be a peer
> >>>>> counsellor
> >>>>> to
> >>>>> at-risk young people.
> >>>>> Do you have skills such as writing or design? You?ve got a valuable
> >>>>> skill
> >>>>> that almost any nonprofit could use. Take action and call them up
even

I?m

> >>>>> I

imagine

> >>>>> this fear of the unknown is what ultimately leads many blind people
to
> >>>>> decide not to serve because we worry that we won?t know how to
perform
> >>>>> the

> >>>>> say
> >>>>> yes. Don?t think too much about it. In full disclosure, I?m not
saying
> >>>>> that
> >>>>> this is easy. I?ll be the first to say that it?s certainly not for
me,

> >>>>> think it?s advice worth trying. And what better time to try than
> >>>>> during
> >>>>> the
> >>>>> 75 Days of Service, when there?s a whole group of people there to
> >>>>> support
> >>>>> you and talk through any worries or challenges you might have.

> >>>>> The author asks us how we move from passively skimming headlines to
> >>>>> caring
> >>>>> to actively doing. This is a question I?ve wondered about for some
> >>>>> time,
> >>>>> and
> >>>>> it?s why I love what we?re doing with the 75 Days of Service because

we?re

our

?By

complex,

involved

I

> >>>>> And
> >>>>> then from caring about the issue to wanting to make it what you want
> >>>>> to
> >>>>> spend your time working on?
> >>>>> How to Find Yourself and Change the World
> >>>>> I encourage people to take this into their own hands. To learn about
> >>>>> yourself and what you are capable of. Take the initiative and open
> >>>>> yourself
> >>>>> up to the broader experiences of the world?to experiences that might
> >>>>> be
> >>>>> new,
> >>>>> exciting, emotional, and sometimes physically uncomfortable.
> >>>>> One of the most meaningful experiences of my life was volunteering
at
> >>>>> a
> >>>>> human rights nonprofit and interviewing refugees in a camp on the
> >>>>> Thai-Burma
> >>>>> border. There was no running water, no electricity.  We sat on the
> >>>>> bare
> >>>>> floors of their thatched huts.  I listened to their stories of their
> >>>>> lives.
> >>>>> Family members would pick up the guitar and take turns singing
> >>>>> traditional
> >>>>> folk songs.
> >>>>> I came back to my last year of Harvard Law School and felt no
> >>>>> temptation
> >>>>> to
> >>>>> go to the recruiting events of the big law firms.  I was one of the
> >>>>> very
> >>>>> few
> >>>>> who did not have a job upon graduation.   I continued to write and

make
> >>>>> a

> >>>>> the issue?you will learn it by doing it.
> >>>>> Be Curious?Say Yes
> >>>>> If you are invited to visit a low-income neighborhood in Oakland and
> >>>>> tour
> >>>>> their community garden, do it. Go and don?t be afraid to talk to the

> >>>>> who live there and learn about their community. If the Rainforest

> >>>>> Network has a public talk about orangutans in the Sumatran
rainforest

> >>>>> tours, go check it out and hear from the guides about how they are
> >>>>> building
> >>>>> more public access trails.
> >>>>> There are so many public events open to all who are curious to learn

> >>>>> to
> >>>>> at-risk young people.
> >>>>> Do you have skills such as writing or design? You?ve got a valuable

> >>>>> that almost any nonprofit could use. Take action and call them up
even
