I wonder if righteousness is getting in the way of true service or if it fuels my passion

Sometimes I wonder if there is a hiearchy of purpose.  At times, I feel so righteous because of the work I do...(working with marginalized youth)...because this is one of my "callings." But I wonder if this righteousness is getting in the way of true service...or, hmmmmm, does it fuel my passion??  I feel like if you talk to 100 people, 99 will have something they are passion about and can think of something they feel is worth fighting for...it's through this diversity - created from individual experiences- that you find such a variety of "fights" worth fighting for.

I guess I'm challenging myself and my own experiences. I mean does my "righteousness" need to exist to perpetuate my passion, my calling?  In other words, I feel like "my" fight is extremely important - and at times the ONLY important "fight."  I mean come on,  I am working towards equity in society!!!Through educational equity, soceity will improve for all, right?   

I never want to be a person consumed with my righteousness and pompous in my "fight." But I do want to continue my fuel for equity, and I do want others to see/feel the importance.  I believe it is important to reflect and challenge my own purpose as well as remember we all have a "fight" to fight. 

My friends! Please fight your fight, but be open - remember we ARE connected and I wouldn't be surprised if we find we are all trying to fight the same fight..i guess it's just through different eyes and our different experiences.
