If you spend any time on the web site for the Center for Disease Control (CDC) you'll immediately realize that you've arrived at a place of joyous and uplifting information about the state of health in the U.S. OK, not so much. In reality you'll probably land on a page with some pretty damning statistical trends related to increases in childhood obesity, diabetes, cancer, heart disease, HIV or any number of other health challenges.

I remember in high school being "counseled" on choosing a career path. It wasn't a very beneficial experience. The counselor didn't seem all that interested in truly helping me find the "right path", though I think the greater lacking was in how school systems seemed to be designed. When I take a step back and look at it all (kindergarten through college), it seems more like a corporate assembly line than a personal growth and discovery process.
