| Re: Confused on how to proceed in California Catherine:
Part of why I participate is a number of years ago I was in a profession where I found myself as part of the job, hurting good people because it benefitted the party who hired me. Years of work soured my personality and I was fortunate to wake up and recognize I needed to do something I was both proud of doing and felt provided a worthwhile service to those I served and the community. Teaching fills that goal. But what also fill that goal is in an anonymous manner being able to put the knowledge I gained in my previous profession to work helping victims. It sort of balances past actions with good deeds. I've still got a long ways to go to even out the scales so you'll see me participating here for a while. I hope that makes sense.
Take care,
