I really like the last line of this: the world doesn't need saving. I suppose part of having Faith is knowing that the world is perfect and we have all chosen and created this in one way or another--our higher selves have a bird's eye view and a plan. All that seems difficult is part of the plan of choice.
We work on whatever aspect we feel moved to work on. The goal? to realize godhood--not eliminate childhood lead poisoning, save the dolphins, or teach every child to read specifically--or whatever other goal we work on so that we can actually work on ourselves and serve others.
I was thinking about that in terms of Wanderers who may perhaps not understand or have had any experiences of specific aspects of the Creation, and who then may choose to incarnate in order to get these. For instance, Wanderers who engage themselves in topics like stop the war, or help starving children, or stop sex trade with women and children etc etc, may do so for two reasons (among many I'd guess). One is that to gain an understanding of this particular aspect of the Creation/Creator (they may have lacked this experience from their home planet, or in some other way do not understand). Two is that this planet does have many problems. Without anyone engaging in issues like those that I've mentioned above, it may be difficult to learn ways of love, which is the goal of this density. So, a Wanderer engaging itself in these issues, does two things. One is making this world to a more harmonious place to live upon. Two is that it alleviates its own distortions towards this particular issue it involved in, by gaining more understanding.
