Hi Narz!

I completely understand the longing for a challenge. It's what keeps me going, daily.

I was asked by a man at one point, "how many people have you affected in a positive manner today?"

I had to think about for a minute (you know, intellectual BS) and then I realized that it was very simple: If I can affect as many people as possible in a positive manner, then I am complete. I have much to offer many people, even if it is nothing more than a friendly smile to a stranger. It can anonymous (the most challenging way for MY ego) or you can volunteer. It doesn't much matter. Pick something that you would not normally do to create the challenge.

I don't know if this helps, but I really enjoy when I see or hear of someone stretching and/or reaching for something new. Bravo to you!

All the best!
