re: #66 subsailor68

I’d guess that many, if not most, of the posters here volunteer their time on at least one project. I do know that after spending a few hours with our seniors, I come home feeling that I really couldn’t have made better use of my time, and I’d guess everyone here has felt that same way.

If, on the other hand, we had all been coerced into doing it, we’d probably feel we’d done some good, but not have that terrific feeling that we’d done it simply because it needed to be done.

Similarly, when I mail off a giant check to pay my taxes, I don’t get filled with warm fuzzies for the good that I’m doing.
