Volunteer: My First Day

Last week I promised a local non profit organization, mental health institute, that I would dedicate 2 hours per month in helping out in their center. They were pretty excited of having me joining their program, and myself were delighted to.

It has been almost 7 years since I last contribute my time and energy to less fortunate ones. I don’t consider myself to be the best volunteer among friends and acquaintances, but I always make a point to do it with unconditioned love. I know, it sound corny but it’s the honest true. However, the last 7 years had been a roller coaster ride  juggling  multi-roles at work and home.

Today, I was suppose to show up at the center to be an observer before I take on a specific role. Guess what, I forget! By the time I remember it was already six hours passed. I’m so ashamed of myself cause this had never happened to me.

I will have to call S.P on Thursday to apologize for my “irresponsibleness”.
