John 15:12

I would like to talk to about what did I learn in Cambodia.

 

I learned many things. I thought children has strong heart, because they were poor, but they made smile for us, when we visited. It was first time to see me, they did not know about me, but they were came to me and I played with them.

I realized how difficult is that. If I am in that situation, I cannot make smile.

 

In second, I learned how volunteer is important. For example, we painted the house, for the owner. We helped to paint the wall. It was very tired, and temperature was high. Also clothes became dirty. But it was not for us. So we had a feeling of the achievement, in that we worked for people who need to help, so we worked so hard. That looks was so nice.

 

I would like to say thank you to Jesus, because I can go to school to study, I can eat, I can do almost everything. But people in the Cambodia, they are very poor. So, if I was very poor then, I think I can’t make smile. So I felt they had a strong heart.
