Back when I was in college, I was involved with a group that did community service. Though I didn't have a lot of free time, I felt compelled to help others, and I joined and actively participated in the group. And I really liked it. I felt good, knowing that I was helping other people.
I miss that feeling. It's been a couple years since I've taken time out of my life to help someone else. I can easily donate some of my time on a Saturday or Sunday, and yet I haven't. It's rather sad.
I've decided, though, that I'm going to commit to helping again. In a city as big as this, I'm sure there must be loads of opportunities. I just need to find something that's right. Perhaps Habitat for Humanity, or something like that. After work I'll take a look around and see what I can come up with. :)
