“Working for something beyond ourselves teaches us about the human spirit. It’s easy to feel hopeful about people after one of these experiences. But when we serve others, we gain more than hope. We gain energy. People who volunteer for a community or service project often arrive straight from work, exhausted. But after several hours of meaningful volunteer work, they go home energized. … Work that serves the common good doesn’t take away our energy. Instead, energy pours into our bodies through our open hearts and generous spirits.” Margaret Wheatley, Turning to One Another, p. 127
