Sometimes you just need to get through the week.  You know what I am talking about - that week where nothing seems to be working, like when you found out that proposal you spent long hours writing was rejected, or perhaps you were late to an important government meeting - an hour late.  All of these things can leave you wondering why you chose this career to begin with, and wouldn't it be easier to go to a country where everything on the menu was actually in the restaurant and you had high speed Internet?

Recently I started a series called Supplemental Sundays, which is a five minute audio clip designed to inspire, create reflection and entertain you every two weeks.  This week's show includes a sample of three different stories from aid workers -  from Michael's story on accidentally participating in illegal border trade to Saul's experiences back in the aid worker survival days, I think you will find them a good reminder of why we do what we do, despite the ups and downs.
