Volunteering Experience
A volunteering experience that really impacted my life was when I volunteered at the downtown station on Thanksgiving to serve food for the needy ones. Being able to help those around me had opened my eyes to the world. I am no longer self-centered about my life but rather focus on my fellow mankind and God's will. This valuable experience has set a pattern in my life to keep on helping others and serve my community. I feel that I had become a better person by volunteering, and that only through volunteering can I fulfill my purpose for existence. Even though a person should always looks at life in a positive way, ignoring the imperfection such as poverty is an ignorant thing to do. My first experience at volunteering was also my favorite events and a defining moment in my life. I learned more about myself after a long day of serving food and setting up cans than I did in my entire life. I learned that the pampering my parents give me had shape me into an almost ignorant person. I always had something to complain about my life even when everything is smoothing sailing, and that caused me to feel so ignorant when i saw how others life are not easier. By me getting involved to help others, I am slowly evolving from being self centered person to become more empathetic. I can feel the hardship of those around me, and that God wanted me to give my best effort to help. That volunteering moment is a defining moment in my life and God. I feel that I have came a long way in building my character and morality, and that through volunteering I had made a difference in my community even if it is only a little bit. I know God have a plan for every person because without it each of our existence will be meaningless. This experience have connected me to God's will and given me a better reason to live for- helping others to overcome their adversary. I always wanted to become a nurse so I can help others with their sickness, and that volunteering experience has confirmed the
