Pain is exactly like another person in the room, talking over others so that you can't even attend to conversations some days. The new article and potential interview must feel a little like rewards, although we know we're not always rewarded for our efforts. We keep them up because it's in our makeup to keep fighting for ourselves and others.

It's astounding to me in my own country how many seniors and children don't have access to adequate food.
