My name is ShengJin and I’ve already live life in Nakuru for three weeks, these days are really impressive for me. I’ve never expect I’ll experience such interesting, and meaningful days like these. I do have a lot of fun in the center and with children, I taught them to draw, we draw the character in Madagascar and Doraemon, many kids draw amazing pictures. We held a family party to dance, to singing, the food, the music, everything were just perfect at that night. And we decorated the study room together, to make a heart photo wall to remember our friendship. I showed them my country, my hometown, my university and my life. And we talk about our own dreams and ideas. It is great to know that they are trying to make a difference for their life just like me; it is great to know that we are actually the same. We had a really good time. And through these things, I really recognize that many children have talent on art and sport, but maybe they just do not have the chance to develop it, and it is really make me feel that how lucky I’m, and it is made me do really understand what is the poverty and how is poverty have such influence on people’s life. It is made me more cherish my life, and made me know more about the world. Life is not always easy sometimes, and problems are jumping out all the time. We are short of money, so we have to change the breakfast for children from Mandazi and milk tea to porridge, it really made kids upset and terrified to stick into starving and poverty again. So the process to negotiate with kids and to comfort them is very hard for us. We tried to make it clear to kids that we’ll not let you starving and what we do is try to save the money for the school fees to ensure your educate will never stop. However, some kids seemed very angry and upset so that they even said something like” then just kick four people out of the school, we don’t want change the breakfast” when we explain the reason for them. At that moment I felt so sad and disappointed. Not only for the kids, but also for us, for our volunteers. It seems that our come didn’t bring too many change to them, we are helpless when they are short of money. We didn’t teach them what is kind and sympathy and understanding. And after we leave the center, what can we do to keep going to help them not just the money but something can change their life and give them more to have a better understanding of the world and how can they to face the world. And there still are a lot of problems in the center, and sometimes it just made me feel bad and upset that I feel there is nothing I can do to help to change those into good. But when I stood on the grass in our center to see kids leave to school when the sun rising and they were happy and active and waved to me with big smile, I feel life was becoming full of hope again. I know for just one month here and the international work each day are really not enough to make a big difference for them, and perhaps our come and go soon will hurt children’s heart because when they start to be used to our accompany and suddenly it is the time for us to leave. However, what I’ve got is that we are not the one who give but the one who receive and learn. We got an incredible experience here, it teach us how to love, how to take care of others, how to cherish everything we have, and how to understand the world better. I’m glad I made the choice to come to here, to Kenya, it really give me an excellent opportunity to see the real Africa, and the world that I’m not familiar with. And I also made a lot of goods friends here. we talked about history, countries, culture, and share the happiness and sorrow with each other, the friendship of us can live forever. This is too good to me, even over my expectation for this journey. From the people I know here, I have more courage to face my future and prepare for everything, good or bad. I’m not scared of the future anymore and I'm more clear about the way I’ll choose in my future.
