Just keep searching. Just keep searching.

I downloaded a book yesterday onto my nook that was written to help readers find their passion.  I have read other such books that have validated that leaving my corporate career was the right move, but fell short on delivering the perfect next step.  I realize that just reading a book can't deliver all the answers, but I guess I believe if I keep exploring and keep looking, I'll find it.

I have done a lot of volunteer work for three different organizations.  One was a ministry that was doing admirable work in South Africa, but I just wasn't comfortable with the strong religious overtones in that environment.  The other was The Red Cross - great organization.   I am still involved there.  My favorite was the KIPP school, an inner-city charter school that has achieved remarkable improvements in test scores and advanced placement for its students.  While I didn't work directly with the students (so far), I have helped with student recruitment and preparing the school over the summer for the students' return.

I am lucky I have reached a point in my life that I can explore new things and search for meaning.  Yet, I still feel a bit lost during my search.  I can't seem to find that thing that makes me say "That's It!"  Or,"I've finally found exactly what I am searching for."

I guess for now, I'll keep my eyes open and keeping moving forward.
