Cause, And My Effect.

Everyday I wish I could do more for my community, and less for my self. I wish, I wish, I wish.
I have a friend who donates his time delivering condoms to places of business for free distribution to those who need them, in the interest of safe sex and the prevention of STDs.
I have another friend who spears up GLBT awareness programs including an annual Pride Event.
Yet another friend donates his formidable floral talent to an organization that raises money for AIDS awareness, assistance and Support.
I have another friend who provides musical talent to a hospital that believes children's healing can be facilitated through song and music therapy.
What do I do?
I work.
Ugh.
When will my life create positive impact for other people?
Truth is, I work two jobs, come home exhausted, conk out early, and do it all again the next day.
I could donate time in the evenings to a charitable cause. But I don't.
Why not? Am I lazy? Am I disinterested in making the world a better place?
No.
I am interested, I am not lazy.
But I do lack inspiration.
What causes are out there that need my support? My help, my talents, my time?
Anyone?
