Most of us work in the nonprofit world because we want to do some good. We’d like to leave our particular part of the earth a little better than the way we found it. Sometimes this feels like a higher calling. Indeed, for some religious organizations, it actually is a higher calling.

I applied and was accepted to an artist residency program in Kentucky, where I’d planned on working on a particular personal (i.e. non-Big Duck) writing project that took a lot more headspace and time than what my life typically allows.
Reading by the wood stove soothes the soul.
