When a person gets out and helps others, it is a very good feeling and gives
a perspective on ones own life. I do a huge amount of volunteer work and help
many people as well as do dog rescue every day. Not one day goes by when I
haven't reached out to make a difference. Doing this give a person a feeling of
wonder inside because it is really what we are supposed to be doing. Try it.
If you volunteer in a pediatric cancer ward or walk dogs for the local animal
shelter, you can't help but feel lucky that you aren't an orphan in a cage or
have cancer before you've even seen your 7th birthday. It makes you glad
that you have achieved something. It helps you grow and connect to your
spiritual self.
Try it! Let us know what happens.
