  2. The wisdom involved for breaking rules is so fascinating to me. Is it something we “teach” or do we all somehow possess it and we just need the freedom to act out how we feel is right.

    When I think about having kids, I worry sometimes whether I’ll be able to teach more than the rules, but also teach the wisdom and morals to be able to break the rules if need be.

    Fantastic piece! Tonight I was reminded how rare strength of character is in today’s world. Doing the right thing sometimes does break the rules, and those who are willing to break barriers to follow their convictions should be rewarded.

    This was really inspiring, thank you =]
    It’s My Job is what I listen to to inspire me when I feel like I’m losing myself to tasks instead of making a difference. Enjoy!
