Purpose

Over the years I have heard and shared many opinions about Kwoon maintenance and this is the year that it all makes sense. I have participated for many selfish reasons, mostly because I like helping and it makes me feel good. I like being the morning girl, especially when I don't have to work.
This year the light went on! It's about wanting to give back to our Kwoon; make it better, last longer, more user friendly, clean it up. This year I was able to look around with fresh perspective and really see what needed to be done. I realized that it doesn't matter what you do as long as you want to do it, that is the key. Take ownership of our place and do stuff because you want to not because you feel like you have to, it is not the ticket to your next promotion! Understanding the purpose of the project is the ticket, embracing the opportunity is the answer.
I love being at the Kwoon, it is my home away from home and I like doing things like I do at home. It    
helps make it mine, I feel proud of our place and the work that we put into it.
I feel kind of like I am babbling a bit but I'm excited to have finally figured this out and I want to get my words down before they slip away.
My final thoughts are, try to think about the purpose of the project and what you can learn from it!
