All Throughout my life, I have been granted certain privileges and given certain rights. I have been blessed in almost everything I do, and I have been lucky enough to lead the life, I have been given. Sometimes I take my life for granted, and wonder how I can face the few obstacles I have met in my life. Although I have had my fair share of hardships, there are many other people in this world that are far less fortunate than me, and even you. We are all blessed in different way. We have food available to us for every meal, we have warm homes to come back to everyday, and we have wonderful friends and family in our lives that surround us with love that make our lives so great. Many people do not have these luxuries, that we often take for granted, and I think we can be ignorant to that at times. For this, I believe it is important that we should become selfless in our acts, and show those who have less than us acts of kindness. All of this can easily be done through community service. .
Although some may see community service as a hassle, I see it as an opportunity to better the lives of many. It is so easy, yet at the same time, so hard. Something as simple as donating a few of your clothes to the Salvation Army can have the biggest impact. Community service can raise the standard of living if every person did their part. It may seem like a hassle, but not much is needed. It is almost effortless. Each person needs to do only a small part, and each of those small parts can grow into something big. It's the small acts of kindness in our society that really count, and make the big picture that everyone tries to see. It is so simple to make a contribution.
There are countless ways to help. Different groups have made themselves known over the years, and they have helped numerous people throughout their programs. It has been a very rewarding experience for those involved in each program, and I can say by my first hand experience, there is nothing more satisfying than knowing that you helped make some else's life a better one.
