When we first moved here I played and played, doing things I didn't do before, taking classes and being active. Well, the novelty wore off. I felt very self absorbed, selfish and unbalanced. Before we moved here I often was a volunteer in small areas during my working years and missed it. It wasn't until I began volunteering again with church related things, food pantry, Centisible Furnishings and as an officer in a club, that I felt I was more balanced and less lop-sided. I find volunteer work not only to be fun but essential. I CAN help so, why not? Find your niche, you'll be glad you did.
