A Winter's Quest

I'm ready for an adventure.

I'm ready for a change in attitude, if not latittude.

I'm ready for a big challenge, somethng beyond the borders of my town.

I've been very lucky to date. I've been involved in my community, and have been honored to have been honored for my work (though everything I've done has been as part of a team--thus it has been more than a little embarrassing being honored individually for a group effort.)

I've kicked around stating a local arts council. I've thought about volunteering with an established local group.

But, to tell you the truth, I've done that.

I want to do more, something that will have a more lasting influence, over a broader spectrum.

I don't know what "it" is yet--but I'm searching. I've been watching and listening to
TED Conference presentations (great stuff!) and banging around the 'net.

I've been thinking about the core things that affect humans-- energy, the environment, education. Maybe population control. Nothing has sparked yet. Maybe it won't.

But I'll be spending the Winter in contemplation--and asking friends--

What would you do if you had time, energy, a moderate ability to organize and create events and organizations, and a driving need to want to help?
