4 . A couple of months ago, I made a promise to myself. I had put some money in my wallet with the purpose of giving the money away to the first person I came across who deserved (应得) it.
Months passed, and as my daily life got busy, I was unable to keep my promise. Whenever I opened my wallet and saw the money, I was reminded of my purpose for it, and I would feel a little disappointed for having not acted on it. The voice inside told me that I should do something soon.
One day, while walking to work on a busy street, I passed a blind old lady with her hand out on the corer. Seeing her aged face and blind eyes, I stopped at once. A wave of sympathy (同情) washed over me, and I remembered the money that had been lying in my wallet all these months. I took out the money from the wallet. Gently, I took her hand, placed the notes into it, and closed her fingers over the notes so that she could feel the money and understand my action. Then I slowly moved away. I felt like I had achieved something. I had kept my word to myself. The lady nodded her head a little bit. I felt happy and moved on.
This small act was a huge step towards facing and walking through my own fears around giving. How great it is to carry out these small yet kind actions!

Together with his mother Jennifer, David started Project Freedom Ride in December 2016. Jennifer wrote on the organization’s Facebook page, “We work with Texas Rescues.

9 . Actress Jiang Yiyan has spent around a month a year volunteering as a teacher in mountain villages in Guangxi for nine years in row (连续).
In 2007, when she took part in film shooting in that area. She was shocked by the poverty (贫穷) there. Children had to walk along mountain roads to attend classes at a neighbouring village school. So she came up with the idea of doing something for these children. Besides giving classes, Jiang also plays games with children and sings songs for them. And she cares much for their daily life. Moreover, she donated a billion yuan to set up a fund (基金) for students there.
“Like the grass in stone clefts (裂缝), they have to try their best to find sunshine on their own rather than waiting for others to do it for them.” Jiang said.
When asked how she persisted in her volunteer to services for such a long time, Jiang said, “I’m not persisting but enjoying”.
“It’s not that I gave these kids love. I am actually learning about love.” Jiang added.
To enjoy and share love is seen as the most important thing in her life. At the same time, children in the big mountains have also influenced Jiang.
