Today I learnt a valuable lesson. Start your dreams with pebbles.
Funny sounding I bet but it's true.
When I was younger, I wanted to do many things but mostly to help change and shape the world. It rattled me when I discovered how social economics work. How, when one thing happens across the world, how it affects each of us. I was devastated to see how one person could manipulate so many into doing such horrible things. How could we switch it? Make it from something bad to something good.
I started to volunteer at an early age. I wanted to make others smile and happy.
I've admitted in the past, it's become an addiction. Volunteering that is. I love how it makes others smile. How energized I get. What I learn.
The key? What I learn. Since I started to volunteer, I've learnt more than any educational institution could teach me and all for free. I want to be that positive ripple effect that spans across oceans, one that reaches higher than the clouds and touches a heart further than I've dreamt.
Now, I'm stepping out on my own with some friends and doing something I've never done before. Nothing of this magnitude and I am more excited than I could imagine. This is where I should be, right here, right now. All from that first pebble cast on my first volunteer job. I started my dream in my early teens without knowing.
Now it's your turn.
Love your life.

Starting to write this years ago, based on life's experiences, it's grown to more than I could have imagined. With views from all over the world, I would rather spread words of kindness, showing that Philanthropy is something inside each of us. Never costing a dime, always being more than we anticipated.
