I want to take part in service because I wholeheartedly believe that direct acts of kindness are powerful enough to change lives. I receive motivation from the simplest of compliments because they are recognition of my dignity. Since others may have a diverse set of internal and external struggles, I want to befriend them, understand their perspectives on a personal level, and work with them to help find feasible solutions. Education provides critical thinking skills that lead to innovation and progress. As an aspiring teacher, I want to talk about course material with students and encourage genuine thought and progress. Each and every interaction with a student should be rooted in dignity. By creating an environment where students feel welcome, I can let students at least temporarily take a break from struggles and focus on academic and cognitive development. Service allows for an enhanced identity. Since we always change, I want to continue improving my identity.
