Change in Plans

"Your profession is not what brings home your paycheck.  Your profession is what you were put on earth to do.  With such passion and intensity that it becomes spiritual in calling." - Vincent Van Gogh

Since site visit there have been concerns and issues raised about my site and partner organization. Due to some things that I didn't write about and the fact that there is another organization that has been anxiously waiting for a Response volunteer with experience in marketing for health related programs, my post has been changed.

Now I'll be working with PSI (Population Services International) in Labe. I am really excited about this new position, I think that it lines up really well with my past experiences and interests and cannot wait to get started working with them!

I am disappointed that the original position did not work out, and hope that the organization can develop and possibly work to organize and receive a volunteer later on.

Like Van Gogh said in the quote at the beginning of this post, "your profession is what you were put on this earth to do," and I feel that in this new position I'll have that passion and motivation that will create a more impact-full service.
