圓滾滾香菇森林歷險記

It's been a while.... Life has been changing - as it always seems to do - a lot lately!!!
I had been looking for a long time into opportunities to volunteer abroad. I just applied a program to volunteer abroad in Philippines and it was accepted!!! This is more than just a last hurrah before my graduation. I’m so flattered that I got this opportunity cause there are lots of people applied for the program and actually they are better than me. I am beginning to feel like that might be the best thing for next year!!!


When I volunteer for a cause, or just lend a helping hand to a friend in need, I feel really good inside. A “feeling” is one thing, but knowing for sure that something great happens to you when you volunteer is something else. It gets your mind off of your own pain and forces you to count your blessings. The most important thing for me is to learn how to respect differences and how to appreciate our own families and circumstances.


Volunteer job can be practical and fulfilling. If you’re feeling blue, get out there and help someone in need. Do something, anything, and do it not just to help others, but to help yourself. You’ll be glad that you did. Volunteering is not just good for the one who gets, but for the one who gives too.
