Since I am seeking after a masters in Social Work, I can let you know my purpose behind picking social work as a calling.

To be included in Social Work will give me the chance to (single folks be effective at child rearing) and improving life for their youngsters and for themselves. ( I dont Know what that means) My own backgrounds would be an assest and an incredible instrument for me to use in drilling and managing. I truly don't believe that anybody ought to pick Social Work as a calling on the off chance that they don't have at the top of the priority list of helping people.I would say that the vast majority who enter the social work calling are roused by the yearning to help other people and also the craving to change their reality. Social workers have a hard occupation and we all know they aren't paid exceptionally well. Positively anybody wanting this calling would be occupied with helping other people as opposed to profiting.

The Trouble We’re In Privilege, Power, and Difference .docxboadverna
The Trouble We’re In: Privilege, Power, and Difference
Allan G. Johnson
The trouble around difference is really about privilege and power—the existence of privilege
and the lopsided distribution of power that keeps it going. The trouble is rooted in a legacy we all
inherited, and while we’re here, it belongs to us. It isn’t our fault. It wasn’t caused by something we did
or didn’t do. But now it’s all ours, it’s up to us to decide how we’re going to deal with it before we
collectively pass it along to the generations that will follow ours.
Talking about power and privilege isn’t easy, which is why people rarely do. The reason for this
omission seems to be a great fear of anything that might make whites or males or heterosexuals
uncomfortable or “pit groups against each other,”1 even though groups are already pitted against one
another by the structures of privilege that organize society as a whole. The fear keeps people from
looking at what’s going on and makes it impossible to do anything about the reality that lies deeper
down, so that they can move toward the kind of world that would be better for everyone.
Difference Is Not the Problem
Ignoring privilege keeps us in a state of unreality, by promoting the illusion the difference by
itself is the problem. In some ways, of course, it can be a problem when people try to work together
across cultural divides that set groups up to think and do things their own way. But human beings have
been overcoming such divides for thousands of years as a matter of routine. The real illusion connected
to difference is the popular assumption that people are naturally afraid of what they don’t know or
understand. This supposedly makes it inevitable that you’ll fear and distrust people who aren’t like you
and, in spite of your good intentions, you’ll find it all but impossible to get along with them.
For all its popularity, the idea that everyone is naturally frightened by difference is a cultural
myth that, more than anything, justifies keeping outsiders on the outside and treating them badly if
they happen to get in. The mere fact that something is new or strange isn’t enough to make us afraid of
it. When Europeans first came to North America, for example, they weren’t terribly afraid of the people
they encountered, and the typical Native American response was to welcome these astonishingly
“different” people with open arms (much to their later regret). Scientists, psychotherapists, inventors,
novelists (and their fans), explorers, philosophers, spiritualists, anthropologists, and the just plain
curious are all drawn to the mystery of what they don’t know. Even children—probably the most
vulnerable form that people come in—seem to love the unknown, which is why parents are always
worrying about what their toddler has gotten into now.
There is nothing inherently frightening about what we don’t know. If we feel afraid, it isn’t what
we don ...

We sometimes underestimate the ripples we create in the world around us. In Issue 9, our contributors share changes that have resonated in big ways – a high school educator finds connection with his students, a Nobel Peace Prize nominee encourages unity in the face of terrorism, and a daughter is inspired by her father’s generous nature. Our children's section shares some ideas on how to cheer up a sick a friend.
Join us this month in sharing our heart’s resources with everyone we meet.

5. We cannot talk about change and not
understand what it means for us.
For us it means
facing up to the following:
6. ON ‘GENDER’
Men and women want the same things:
peace, love and happiness.
The human soul knows no divisions be they
male or female, masculine or feminine, strong or
weak or superior or inferior.
Image by Renaudeh on sxc.hu
7. ON ‘RACE’
There is no such thing as the
‘races’. We are all part of the
same, the human race.
8. There is no hierarchy of
superior and inferior
beings. Class differences
are social constructs.
Given the same opportunities,
every human being has the
potential to excel at whatever
he or she is here to specialise
in.
ON ‘CLASS’
9. ON ‘RELIGION’
No one religion
has access
to an exclusive
truth. Every human being has
the potential to discover
for herself or himself... how she or he
may reconnect
with their
peaceful, loving
and happy
nature.
10. ON HUMANITY
The future is about finding a balance
between the needs of the individual and that
of the collective…
… and our interconnectedness with
nature.
Image by ba1969 on sxc.hu
11. ON LEADERSHIP
Women and girls have, in this phase of
human evolution, played a passive role in the
shaping of our world.
We now have, men and women, an
opportunity to shape the future together.
12. There are nearly seven billion men and
women in the world. 1% equals seventy
million.
Imagine what we can do individually
and together… if we put our minds to it.
Image by fangol on sxc.hu
13. There are many paths to change.
Our path requires thinking about
change, feeling the change, taking
action and then serving the change.
Image by groundnotes.wordpress.com
14. A CONSCIOUS CHOICE
If you’ve followed our thinking and
like what we are about…
…you can join us at Friends of Mi Casita.
Every individual has a choice over what
stage he or she wishes to engage in.
15. We’re doing something to create
the world we wish to live in.
We have decided to do something than
NOTHING.
16. Find out more
Find out about us and how this
project can contribute to shaping
the world we wish to live in.
17. AND PLEASE REMEMBER, the
choice we are inviting you to
make…
… is not an easy choice. It is a conscious choice.

18. ABOUT THE FUTURE
“It doesn't matter how long we may
have been stuck in a sense of our
limitations. If we go into a darkened
room and turn on the light, it doesn't
matter if the room has been dark for
a day, a week, or ten thousand
years - we turn on the light and it is
illuminated. Once we control our
capacity for love and happiness, the
light has been turned on.”
Sharon Salzberg
