What do you do to help?

[Zaverexus]

I volunteer in the local Special Olympics every year, I've helped out in a few seasons in the Miracle League to give mentally disabled children a chance to play baseball, and I often help out a nearby school volunteering or helping with projects for the ESE (disabled children) program

I don't really do anything. I am pretty sure I am part of the problem.
I rely on governmental supplements to get by. I'm not a nice or good person. I am too sick to donate blood or do volunteer work.
I want to help, believe it or not. Some part of me is still pathetic and weak, eager to save the world and everyone in it. But I can't.
It would upset me if I allowed things to upset me.

If I ever managed to get better or resume my education somehow, I think I would like to study child psychology and go into a field that helps children. That or go into law enforcement.
Not likely to happen any time soon, though. Perhaps not at all.

I try cheer up my friends when they're down. I help my fellow students with work when they're stuck and I know how to solve their problem. I say hello to my neighbour when I see him on my way into the house. When I graduate and start earning I'll probably chuck some cash at the RSPCA (animal charity).

It's not much, but it's something.

My mother used to work at our local nursery home and I've asked her to get me a volunteer form, or whatevers needed. Though she won't be able to get one until she goes to visit my grandfather again

Alright, sorry if I misunderstood you. It's just when people say the world can't change, it's irritating to hear. Because it's that attitude which will hold them back.

And I'm not trying to help for the sake of helping, I genuinly think that someone should be trying to make people care more, and help each other. And from what I've seen and realized from this world, is you can't really rely on other people. So I do what I can.

Well, personally, I don't think the world will change. Because humans won't change.

The thing is.. As much as I hate to admit it, I do believe the world can't change either. People are who they are.. And change is hard. It's not an easy thing to do, no matter how much you want it.

It's soo easy to just give up though, so easy to just say "fuck it, everyone can go to hell" and there have been countless times I've wanted to do that.. But I dunno, somethings keeping me going.

I work at Give Kids the World, an organization that helps kids with terminal illnesses fulfill their last wishes.

I've never wanted to give up, really. I've never had the ideaology to try to hard or try to little. I just do. Seems simplest that way.

I've wanted to give up so many times. But there are people so much worse off than I am, and if helping even one of those people means suffering a long horrible life (not essentially saying that will happen) then so be it.
