If none of you fine individuals out there have heard the song, “Prayer of the Children”, I must strongly encourage you to go to this link and watch it ASAP!  It’s really powerful!  Kurt Bestor wrote it out of frustration over the horrendous civil war and ethnic cleansing taking place in the former country of Yugoslavia.  It’s a beautiful song that compels the listener to act and do something to make the world a better place.  http://youtube.com/watch?v=CTZFIcqnQMg

    So, my brother called me last night to talk about an idea.  As I look to graduate, one of the options I am most compelled by is the Residential MBA program at AU.  Anyway, my brother is finishing up his second year of law school in Indy and he called me with an idea.  Both of us grew up as PKs and with a desire to help others.  After thinking about it a while and with the further encouragement of my girlfriend, he talked about setting up a not-for-profit organization!  Not sure necessarily what, but something that we could use to make a difference in this world and help others.  He said he could use his law degree and political experiences (which are a LOT, trust me on that one) and I could use my business knowledge.  It could be something we start on the side and just grow it slowly if we want.  I was really intrigued by that idea and am really looking forward to thinking about it more and seeing where it goes.
