I’m happy when I make donations to CHEO (Children’s Hospital of Eastearn Ontario), SickKids, World Vision (monthly), MIRA, or other organization that help people. Because I know that it helps people, and the treatments (for them to get better, however painful at times), services or “gifts” they get (like seeing eye dogs, wheelchairs, machines, etc.) make them happy.
I am happy to help people and make them happy, because I have the means do to so. Just by donations whenever I can. Or even donating my own hair to Locks of Love.
And even later on, volunteer with sick kids, or older people in retirement or nursing homes.

I try to stay positive and happy so that I don’t bring negetiveness around other people. I’d like to look happy all the time even when everything seems to be going wrong. I’m sure some people are always in a good mood or seem happy when things are not always good in there lives. I don’t know what they do to not let it bother them but I take my hat to them. I’d like to be like that, not show when I’m not in a bad mood, not let it bother me and just be positive all the time.
I heard this woman at work once talking about a friend of hers. Her friends was working with people, I think with disabilities or something like that. She said something like: “You can see people with so many problems, and suffering and when you get home after work, you don’t have any problems anymore”. It’s like, your small everyday little problems are meaningless compared to what other people have to endure. That’s what I tried to tell myself. Even if everything goes wrong or you have small everyday problems, there are more people out there with bigger problems.
Like yesterday, I dropped my minidisc on the ground and it broke. I was very upset at first because I like to listen to music when walking to work. But then I was like, it’s not that big of a deal, some people can’t even afford to buy one of these things and I was lucky enough to have one.
