Well, I'm happy to hear that I can help you at all That is definitely my problem right now, just trying to find the things I love because I really have lost that. I really love anything to do with helping people. I feel great when I can help other people, even if only in some small way, but it's just tough when I can't figure out how to help myself. Hope you're doing well!

Well, I love kids. So I guess I should try to find somewhere where I can work with kids. I've worked at preschools and daycares, so that experience should help. As far as finding something that motivates me, I've kind of lost my spark in life, and don't really know how to get it back to be honest :/

That's cool. I should try to volunteer somewhere... I just don't know where to go lol. I'm sure if I actually tried I could find something. Anyways, I'm doing pretty good. I had to drop another class because I'm having trouble with motivation and focusing :/ My mom wasn't too happy about that as you can imagine. Oh well, I'll just keep truckin along lol. How are you? Have you heard back anything from the interviewers yet?

I hope we both get these jobs!! We both need it right now lol. We'll just have to see how it goes I guess... Anyways, hope you're doing well!

Aw, that's ok. Interviews can make you very nervous, i know. I'm sure you did great! As for me, I applied for a job I had last summer as a dispatcher. It was awesome, so I hope I get it again. So that's my only news lol. It was good to hear from you

Hey Shawn! I was just wondering how you're doing and how the interview went I hope everything's going alright. If you ever want to talk, feel free to PM me

Hi Shawn!!
I hope you're having a super duper day.
I was surprised to find that you were not already my TH friend.
So I just sent you a 'friendship request'. I hope you'll accept it!!
Sorry about the chat. I kept getting bumped off.
Not sure how much of my 'point' you got to read - but I'll sum up what I was trying to say.
IF I was the leader of some 'environmental group' - I would immediately shift the focus away from the environment - and ON to people. That may sound odd - but let me put it this say. I don't want to save TREES [For example] because I'm madly in love with TREES. I want to save trees [And whales and spotted owls and the ozone layer and so on] because I love PEOPLE!! And at first - most environmentalist [I imagine] would say, "Well, duh!!" But I'm sorry to say - far too many of 'them' really don't 'get it'. IF a person truly wants the power to influence - they're not going to get that power from a tree or spotted owl or whatever. That POWER comes from PEOPLE. So the more you can get PEOPLE to appreciate that the environment is NOT about trees [Or ice bergs] but about THEM - the more likely they will be to support your cause. Do you see what I mean? The same is true for global warming. Let's say you interviewed people in downtown Los Angeles and asked them, "What do you think of global warming?" Chances are - you'll get all sorts of answers. Some people will be quite concerned while others will adamantly deny such a 'thing' even exists. And who can blame them. Not everyone believes that 'man' is the cause of global warming. There is still great debate over that - outside of the so-called 'scientific community'. BUT.... ask those SAME people what they think about pollution - and chances are - practically everyone will be concerned to one degree or another. See what I'm getting at? Global warming? Well - that's too much to take in. Besides - it doesn't directly effect ME. [So far as I can tell] But POLLUTION!! When MY eyes are watering. When MY lungs are choking. THAT is when I will be more likely to support something that you are trying to do. So that's what I would focus on. The end result will be the same. But NOW I've greatly improved the odds in my favour of getting POWER. In others words - the support of the people.
That was quite the summing up!! LOL
GREAT BIG HUG
Craig!!
