i came here to make a difference i have always felt guilty that although we have never been rich back home we have still had a lot more money and opportunities than parts of the world that are so easily overlooked i felt guilty because there have been times when i have taken those opportunities for granted and wasted them when so many other people never even had a chance at them. i came here to give hope and give back all that i wasted not to take anything for granted but give new opportunities to people who have never seen them. the sad thing is for some of the youth here that could be as little as swimming in a swimming pool or going to the cinema. so i came not only to build houses and work on projects to improve where people live. but i came to be a part of the way they live and give to that how ever i can. to inspire them the way they inspired me. its funny how if you think about it so many people undeserving get everything but for the people with the most spirit and the most soul have to live there life with nothing when we throw it away so easily if everyone gave back just a little of what they had im not saying to completely throw yourself into poverty to make a difference in someones life. Sometimes just being there and understanding someone that isn't your self makes a big difference. Dont be afraid to share a smile with strangers it could be the one thing they needed to pick back up there day even if it doesn't affect your own life be happy in the fact you could of improved someone else's
