Voluntary work is one of the important sources of goodness as contributing to society's reversal positive image, explaining its prosperity, and spreading good morals among people. Thus, volunteering is a positive phenomenon and an important humanitarian activity as well.
The most prominent features of volunteer work making it different and special among other work we practice as follows:
Self-Knowledge
When you participate in any volunteer work, it will be your first step to identify yourself well, because you would not know yourself till you try it in test through which you will find yourself in new unpledged positions, and sometimes you will be surprised oh how you act.
How to Work Together
Volunteerism, simply, is a gateway to know how to be an effective part of a group away from money control and material gain out of everyone works for everyone. You will find that everyone is doing what he can overcoming obstacles until things are mission accomplished.
Optimal Use of Time
Many of our days old pass inconsiderably we do not mention any work achieved in, we feel that it lost in vain, the times that we devote to help others or to raise awareness of a particular disease or issue, let us know how we impact in others’ live.
How to See the Life As Other's Perspective
The real life you will learn from is when you meet people whose extreme dreams to find a home sheltering them from being homeless, you will find a totally change. When you know that a price of lunch meal for you and your friends is equal to the food of an entire family for a week, then you will learn how to appreciate the grace you have given, and you will learn how to manage as well.
Learn New Skills
Whatever your experience and skills is limited, and you believe you do not have much to offer, it is not true at all. For example, if you are an expert computer typist, it means that skill could be used to help non-visionaries. If you only good on cooking a single type of food – Excellent- it means that you will help needy through it.
Tolerance and Accepting the Other
It is not an expressive phrase, but it is a fact. You will meet people with different backgrounds and cultures and sometimes different age groups. We are different in nature, God created us differently in our behaviors, thoughts and tendencies. We have to accept each other.
Selfishness Disqualification
You might think that the world is just where you live around, hold a moment please, there are whom you should take your care and attention’s priority. There are a lot of issues should be put in consider and take up part of your time to be an effective element to solve.
Volunteerism is not considered as an entertainment, it should be a part of any capable person’s routine to do so. It is not only to serve others, but also to serve yourself at first.
