1. The Enchanted - Rene Denfield
Change Your Head = Change Yourself
Saturday, April 19, 2008
It's actually change your mind but then I thought change your 'head' would be refreshing but merely impossible unless you undergo some surgery. That's crazy, really.

I came back from a public lecture entitled Climate Changes, Disasters and Wars: How can our next generations solve? by Datuk Dr. Jemilah, the founder of MERCY Malaysia (a humanitarian NGO). It was an awesome talk. Though simple but very enriching because we get to listen first hand experience. Albeit its seriousness we still got moments to laugh at funny scenes but overall it was just painful to continue listening to the events should Dr. Jemilah continue telling her stories; remember this person has gone into warzones and witnessed terrifying things you and I may not withstand.

As I was listening to the talk, I realised I have been a hypocrite and a procrastinator. I always tell people to help this and that and bla bla but I never seem to do the same thing. Even if I did, I did it at a very slow pace. I should have make things happening faster... Another thing is I always say I want to contribute back to the society and I don't seem to be doing anything at all. It was just all talks. So I really salute to this woman who really made things happen.

So now I'm reorganizing my priorities as in what I really want to do in giving back to society and what social activities I want to be active in and such. And I really thought of thinking of volunteering with MERCY because it's really close with what I wanted to contribute. I wanted to save lives and also improve people's environment as in ENVIRONMENT at the same time and MERCY does seem to fit in nicely but here I am ... being diffident ... always thinking I'm not qualified. Whatever ... I should just do it.

I'm going to email to one of the coordinators about their disaster education in schools since I'm interested in volunteering in environmental education. Cross finger.

Life is just to short to be ordinary, you know.
