Do you long for purpose?

"I want to be with people who submerge
in the task, who go into the fields to harvest
and work in a row and pass the bags along,
who are not parlor generals and field deserters
but move in a common rhythm
when the food must come in or the fire be put out."

"Can I just say: students are awesome. They bought food, spent literal hours cooking it all (including some of my FAVORITE dishes - yu xiang rou si and gan bian si ji dou for your edjumacation) and refused to let me help clean up my own apartment. But the crazy thing is, this isn't crazy. My teammates and I have experienced this MANY times. They constantly show me hospitality in my own home!! So, basically they're the coolest. That is all." from China teacher Lisa Speckhard
