When I hear the word mission I think of a duty, a responsibility, something larger than myself, something with a goal or higher purpose. Like <a class="dark-link bold-link" role="profile-hover" data-qtip-container="body" data-id="563223" data-source-page-controller="question_response_contents" href="/profiles/563223-po1-john-miller">PO1 John Miller</a> my first and primary responsibility is to my family. Though, based on my interpretation of mission, I see it as more a duty than a mission. For me, my mission would be to keep actively serving my community as a Boy Scout Leader, CERT member and in other volunteer capacities to pass on the things that life has taught me - good and bad - to the next generation. Ok sounds corny but I feel we all need to do our part to follow the Golden Rule and make this world a better place - something a LOT of people, starting with the folks in DC that occupy big white buildings, have forgotten about.

I was born not too long ago on 05/31/1988. I grew up loving the outdoors and playing G.I.Joe (one of my favorite cartoons, even though it was before my time). I knew I wanted to emulate my heroes and carry own my families proud military heritage. I have relatives in every branch, and though our names are different, we all have served without hesitation. <br /><br />Nowadays I accomplish my mission by volunteering and spreading positive vibrations through my actions and deeds. I am far from perfect and I usually seem to take several steps forward; only to backtrack. I want to help my community (wherever I currently reside) and Our Nation in general. I want to be able to connect with people and not just say the generated "Hello, how are you". I am taking up studies into Plant Sciences and Horticulture, based mainly on my belief that were are the caretakers of this planet. <br />I spend my days studying for classes, networking, and watching "WWYD" videos and the like. I want to matter, I want my name to be remembered. I want the good deeds of my life to outweigh the bad. In a religious sense, I want to achieve enlightenment. I want to be welcomed in my death with open arms. But I just don't know if I can get there. Maybe never quitting is one of the ways you do get there, and accomplish your mission? I can only hope.
