We all tend to do missions to places that we like, that is to places that are nice and somehow match up with the things we like. If we like lakes we'll think of doing a mission where there are beautiful lakes and so on.
This is actually perfectly valid.
Humanity is everywhere and the poor and the well-to-do are humanity.
What counts is that we are able to help humanity around us using the Gnostic spiritual teachings to enhance the knowledge of themselves.
Humanity suffers everywhere all over the globe. The suffering is in the same direction or in different, areas. Some areas more physically and some areas more mentally.
We don't have to be in touch with a part of humanity that is doing it really tough to progress on our path.
To voluntarily do a mission in a country where humanity is really suffering more than in others, can only be sustained by love for humanity. Especially so when there is little that resonates with what we like. It is one of the best opportunities to bring out and act on our love for humanity.
This love in turn throws a person forward. Sometimes it is because we have so much karmic debt and need so much help that we must also do a mission in a country experiencing a lot of distress.
The key is to use the difficult circumstances to grow inwardly. We most of the time complain and protest and do just enough to get by in the difficult circumstances, and consequently we don't really grow.
The thing is to voluntarily go for a difficult mission and then voluntarily co-operate with the changes we must give and really grow through giving those changes.
