I gave a presentation at the local Audubon Society chapter meeting last night. I thought it went well and one of CoosWA's board members who happened to be at the meeting even came up to me afterwards and said "Great speech! None of this would be happening without you." I thanked him politely but at the same time thinking "Hahh, what wouldn't be happening? Only 2 people came to my last meeting!" But then, I realized, although the actual engagement of community members part is happening really slowly, I am accomplishing a lot considering that I started from scratch.So, the next time you are bummed about work or home and are thinking you aren't making a difference... Just remember, none of the good stuff would be happening without you, and concentrate on that!
