Volunteer work

It was a light rain, I felt moody.

Since I have joined the force four years ago, I have been doing voluntary work in my leisure time. I found it helpful for me to develop myself, also I could make friends with different people with different background. I enjoyed the time with the friends made in the last few years, it’s precious to me!

Looking back to my volunteering portfolio, I had a great moment with a group of buddies “Bello & Bello” in 2011, we participated in a campaign hold in Taiwan and experienced an amazing five-day tour. I learned many lessons through volunteering!

In 2013, I took part in a scheme by Yan Oi Tong which allowed me to take care of two teenagers ‘Ho Tik’ and ‘Dic Lam’, but I was not responsible for their homework. I would act as a life coaching for them, tried to inspire their thought and self-motivation. I sometime asked myself that what made me different from others? Was I capable enough of navigating someone to make a choice in life? As a matter of fact, I am not the professors or experts who are well-trained or have written many journals or scholar papers, but it’s true that I have been living in the real world for almost thirty years that I have learned something helpful for the teenager’s development. Children are easily to be affected by the fellows, I try not to exert my personal opinion to them. However, I just can’t tolerate him this time, I disliked the people fooling me around when I tried to get thing into business. I then taught him a lesson that I surely would be beneficial to him life long time. I hope he could bear in mind that no one will respect you if you didn’t treat people well.

I make mistake very often. The only thing I learn is ‘Lesson was repeated until you learned’.
