True
Service is dedicated work done in the world which includes a consideration of
its effect on others. It is not
charity. It rests on a redefinition of work itself. In practical terms, this means that any task can be done in
one-way or the other. Any job, any work, can be done by using the power of that
effort solely for one's own benefit or by looking out for the benefit that
job's real purpose has for others: whether it is President of the United States
or garbage collector. True service is
achieved when any job unites power and purpose in benefit to the public.
Every
action properly done is an act of public service no matter how high or how
lowly the actor. Every action is
significant and as such, every single person is critically important. In this way every individual can serve his
fellow citizens and repair what is broken.
And every single individual becomes a solution, instead of the problem.
