I will never bring about world peace.

I will not save the rain forest.

I am not a brain surgeon and I will never transplant an organ to save a life.

I cannot end world hunger.

I am not a celebrity and God knows I am not glamorous.

I am not looked up by millions around the world.  Very few people even know my name.

I will never win a Nobel prize.

I will not end global warming.

But today I placed a dog.

She was a small, scared bundle of flesh and bones that was dropped off by unfeeling people that did not care what happened to her.

I took her in.

I cleaned and helped heal her wounds, both physical and emotional.

I taught her how to trust humans again.

I found her a home.

She now has an abundance of love.  A warm place to sleep and plenty to eat.  She has devotion and is safe.

I am not a rocket scientist but today I save a precious life and made a difference for one dog.
