This blog has no purpose. At least, not in my head as I begin.

I was just sitting at my desk and thinking about my situation and the wonderful position I find myself in. I want for nothing essentially. Yes, I have debt. Yes, I miss home. But if you think about what others are going through it makes one think about how much of an arse we can be.

I was asked to be involved in something called "The Relay for Life". I am to be on the organizational committee. I will help plan 24 hours of non-stop walking which will (hopefully) raise money for Cancer Research. This makes me happy. To be able to do something for people who are affected by this merciless disease. There's me sitting looking at my wonderful computer, my new iPhone, and wondering about getting a car! There are people who have their lives stripped away from them and I'm in a material world right now. This Relay has jolted me into action, even if it's only in planning and preparation.

I wonder what else I could be doing. There are infinite other causes, there is much much more I can do personally. So, I am looking for something else now. Something to direct my energy to while I wait to hear about my visa, status etc...

Maybe this blog was to get my thoughts in order. Maybe it was to provoke a reaction in you, dear reader to do something where you are.
