But I can’t speak Chinese yet and there are no signs in English the nearest supermarket or coffee shop.There are signs in Russian. “ espaciba ” which means thanks,I don’t know much else. I decided to smile at my every attempt to and ask for information that would me to an ATM and a coffee shop.It turned out that my efforts and my were met with more smiles.I learned that is to be found everywhere even I can’t communicate,and that people will depending on what I give.

Having been a music teacher for twenty-seven years, I have always known that music touches the spirit. It can all kinds of barriers to reach the students in a very special way. It can be the by which each child can find their light. I’d like to share a story where music overcame a barrier and made a connection with a young student. One of my most students was a young girl called Vanessa. Vanessa had difficulty walking and couldn’t speak at that time. We sat on the floor for our music lessons. We all like a song, which was a call and response song where I sang the call and the students clapped twice while singing the repeat, "Oh, yes!" We probably that song during every class, Vanessa and I clapping together. She never said or sang a word. One day late in the school year, when the song was finished, Vanessa turned around, looked at me directly in the eye, clapped her tiny hands twice and the words "Oh, yes!" I opened my mouth and for that moment I was the one who couldn’t speak . Through music, we had made an excellent . Several years later, I met Vanessa in the street in town. She waved to me with a big smile on her face and then clapped her hands twice, copying the song we had performed so many times. This precious little girl, her connection with music, left a(n) on me that will last forever. Every child has the ability to learn and grow. It is up to us as to discover the way to reach each and every one of our students. We all must find each child’s light.

Have you ever not wanted to do something so badly? Well, that’s how I about joining Madcaps, a mothers and daughters’ club assisting philanthropies (慈善事业). , my feeling changed finally. Now I believe if you adopt an attitude, you might just enjoying it.
Six months ago, my mom told me the club asked us to work as at Saint Vincent de Paul Homeless shelter. That meant I had to in the dirty homeless shelter for at least 20 hours.
The first time we went there, a lady led us to the kitchen where we my five fellow Madcaps classmates they also wore the same expression. Since I’m usually socially , I had never talked with any of them earlier. Worse still, my mom was asked to help outside the kitchen, leaving me totally to serve food with them. Soon large numbers of homeless families in like rushing river. A little girl, around 5 years old, walked up to me. I her a cold sandwich. She took it and joined her family quickly. As she walked away, I she was wearing a coat, clearly too big for her, hanging on her thin body, and couldn’t help thinking how much I had with her. It suddenly struck me that how I am.
After that moment I had a of heart. Now I love Madcaps and don’t miss one meeting. I have awkwardness when communicating and have many friends. And this year I am sure I will do more than the 20 hours of philanthropies.
So that is how I have made a by doing one thing I don’t want to do. If you have an open
about things you can accomplish more and become a well-rounded (全面的) person.
