Why I do what I do

I do what I do because I do not mind serving. I do not mind giving. There is always a return and not always or necessarily in monetary form.  To have the spirit of giving, giving yourself to someone or something much bigger than yourself is the ultimate sacrifice for a Man or Woman.  I have found my purpose and now I live it.
