Many friends have asked me why I participate in so many volunteer activities and whether I get tired, given volunteering is a rather laborious undertaking. My answer is always: “I am tired, no doubt about that, but the more I volunteer to do, the more I gain from it. Every time I make the effort to help others, I gain a sense of joy and satisfaction.”
Over my many years of living and working in China, so many people have come to my aid when I needed it the most; that’s why I want to help others and contribute more to society here.
