Every once in a while you meet people who are inspired by their work. They exude enthusiasm. They appear to care genuinely about what they are doing, the people with whom they work, and the people they serve. They express a joy that seems to come from deep within...  When you meet such a person, you realize that their work is consistent with their purpose. You might say they are working “on purpose”. They know why they are here and they know the difference they want to make.
