What the YouthCom 2008 volunteers say... |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| "I learned that we can overcome difficulties if we are a team...after the project, I am more tolerant with hardships, misunderstandings and other unexpected situations....I will never forget the generosity and hospitality of the Filipinos..." - Angela | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| "What I learned from this experience is to work with others as a group...like to accept different opinions. The impact of the project in my life...to be able to live without mobile phone, computer - to communicate only with the people you see around you and still be happy....I am very lucky! I should be more generous." -Irene | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| "Portraying a message that,those who are worse-off are not necessarily the "unblessed" . The most important thing is how one's mental state sees the world, whether you are optimistic or pessimistic. For instance, the Filipinos are satisfied with what they possess, the kids are pleased with their learning environment (despite the dim lightings and lack of fans)...I feel more satisfied with what I have and I grumble less often, knowing that I am the blessed one." - Fanny | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| "I should be satisfied with the things I have...the innermost happiness does not come from how much money we have, but from how we appreciate the things that God has given to us such as the goodness of human beings, the nature, etc...." - Galla | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
"To be simple ...can be the golden word for the rest of my life. To be simple when packing for travelling...to be simple when in poverty or difficulty, like the kids... to be simple when wanting to complain about something... just to enjoy the service itself' |
