I want to expand on:

while (problems exist) solve;

The word I want to focus on is "problems". I think programmers in general have a bad habit of limiting the scope of the word "problem" to mean "problems in computing" when in fact, this world is filled with problems -- real problems that can negatively affect the lives of the people around you.

Seriously, with all that's wrong with the world these days, there are many, Many, MANY opportunities to take action and make a positive difference in someone's life. Even if you can't see the opportunties, I urge you to keep looking. But here's a hint: don't look with your eyes -- look with your heart.
