Consider this quote from Loebs book, Chapter 2: Contrary to expectation, were most effective when we realize that there is no perfect time to get involved in social causes, no ideal circumstances for voicing our convictions. What each of us faces instead is a lifelong series of imperfect moments in which we must decide what to stand for. Has the "perfect standard" discouraged you from getting involved in your community? Or discouraged others who you wanted to enlist in community projects? Do you feel that if you cannot change everything at once, why bother? What would it mean to willingly "live with ambiguity" in our political lives? How can we, as citizens, become "good-enough activists" who dont demand perfection or certainty before we begin to take a stand?
