Why Do I volunteer for RAG, instead of studying a bit more....

Posted on Mar 14th, 2009 by Davaadolgor : Miss Davaadolgor
I ve fudnraised in the streets of Edinburgh as a volunteer for a charity which I have no idea about what they do....Barbado's...(one of those lots of charities, my Unibersity Raising and Giving (RAG) club...helps out...)


Which just simply can say, Have been standing with a green XXL sized T-Shirt with the words like 'I am a volunteer' and 'The name of org' and the moto, e.g. 'We bellieve in children'... ( I call street fundraising as competing with homeless people....:))



Today, the 14th of May 2009, it was not the first but not the last, but only made me thinking:
'Why I do volunteer, instead of reading for the loooots of studies scheduled to KILL Students by a desease called 'studing too much,,,'



When a person CAN think of NOTHING BUT ONLY FEEDING BIRDS as HELPING others, it is depressing enough to REALLY FEED BIRDS, NOTHING ELSE....


Or, go to any charity u can name and volunteer there as much as u can,,,, For now, that is the only thing I can do for OTHERS... Even if I have no idea about the rate of corruption in the org, or the activity they do, maybe coz of being lazy or just was selfish enough to lie myself imagining as I was a Jesus, or Buddha or PEACEBIRD...or a superhero, etc.,,


So, all and all, as a student like me, as living in 2009, and as a person who thinks I am nothing for now, and need to study, to do big, what I ve decided to help others and done is absolutely the best solution, and of course, there should be LOTS OF BETTER OPTION TO HELP OTHERS, like always, but NOT ONLY FEEDING BIRDS...:)
