I wish I could quit my job and go help clean the wildlife that has been devestated by this oil leak. It absolutely breaks my heart, and I feel very helpless. This is a gigantic understatement. I donated $100 to the National Wildlife Federation. It sounds absolutely ridiculous considering what has happened. Not even a worth a penny really.

Looking over the posts from March is similar to watching yourself on TV. You generally don't like it. Oh well. It's there now, and I'm going to leave it. Maybe I'll pick it up again at a later date. From here on out though, I've decided to just post memories and observations. I'm almost 50, and I realize that I need to listen more effectively. I really need to hear what people are saying and listen. Sounds simple, but it isn't. This hasn't always been the case with me.
