"Whatever you do may seem insignificant, but it is most important that you do it."

—Mahatma Gandhi

Alive in the World

There is something compelling about any act of genuine courage, perhaps especially on behalf of the voice of conscience. No such act is really a small act. Works & Conversations magazine interviews Audrey Lin, a college student who decided to take a three-day, 50-mile walk, as her way of experimenting with experiential education: "If I'm not living according to my values, if I'm not fully, to the best of my ability embracing something out of fear, then when I die -- and we're all going to die -- what's the point? What's the point of living if you're not really alive? What's the point of living half-heartedly? You have nothing to lose. That's how I look at it. That's why I took this walk. I didn't really second-guess it that much. If I end up always asking, what if? What if? Then I won't have really lived."

BE THE CHANGE

Take a bold step towards your own experiential learning, however insignificant it may seem.
