The New Year is such a time of hope, promises, optimism and resolutions. Most of the time our New Year's resolution will fade away first week of the year and soon we will forget what we wanted to change in our lives.
Many of us don't realize but we are afraid of change. We are so terrified that if we change something we wouldn't like it or worse - we will fail. Instead of promising senseless promises to ourselves we should think about changing our lives for better. Change small things. And every change needs time. Baby steps. We can't expect results or satisfaction in one day, week, sometimes even a month. Change needs time. And time is the best solution for all things happening in our lives.
We need to grant ourselves a long thinking of what and if we really want to change anything before we make any decision. Open your mind and heart and think what you could change and others will benefit out of it as well.
One idea of change is volunteering. But it is also the hardest. Giving our own free time for no material valuation is hard. We always think how much other "stuff" we have to sort out instead of giving time to volunteer.
Volunteering is the best way how to make ourselves better and feel better about ourselves. It is the first step. Baby step.
From all of us here at Expatgiving ... Happy New Year, and thank you for being our friends. May your 2014 be filled with love, peace, joy and all good things!
