I read Mountains Beyond Mountains by Tracy Kidder last year, which documents Paul Farmer's life. I was left feeling two things. One was more hope than I have felt in a long time. This man is a visionary and an action-oriented agent of change - each of which on an impressive scale. But even more impressive is how very rare it is to find a combination of both. The second thing I felt was a reinvigoration of my own sense of purpose in the world. I don't think that I could do all that he does, but I do think that I can do more. If he can find time to do good and make change, then so can I.
