I knit things for people in the complex where I live that could use a hat or scarf, or a coat for their dog.

I know that one thing people often don't understand about me is why I "settle" for certain positions in life.

Most people who meet me ask why I'm not striving for a huge corporate position or leading a large team of people. I have found that I work best as an assistant, and I am perfectly happy in that role. People always want me to lead because I am responsible, but leading is not my gift or calling (I'm not built for the stress or anxiety.)

Rather, I am at my best when serving a moral, responsible leader. I'm perfectly happy being the "errand girl" or person assigned to low-level tasks that need to get done for the good of the rest of the team. I have never been so great with the mass public, but instead, always feel called to other employees.

I feel I am fulfilling my service to God when I try my hardest to listen to and encourage the dreams of the other people I am working with.

And, I also agree with Theygaveyoutheirworst--cards, letters, and small momentos, especially hand-written, are going the way of the dinosaur these days but make a huge impact on others. I try to set aside some time to write a few times a week (though these days, I have to admit to "cheating" and resorting to email.)
