Assalamualaikum warahmatulahi warabakatuh,
In these present world, not many would want to volunteer unless there is some monetary reward attached to it. In the days of old, out of pocket expenses would have been justifiable for those who would give their time to be a volunteer in any specific area of interest be it as a First Aid giver, sports official, helpers in any organizations etc...how all this has changed when self-interest put pay into the art of giving.
Yet with dwindling numbers of sincere volunteers around, I still find time to put service above self...interest of others is my 1st priority when I'm in any given area especially when work is not concerned.
As I continue my journey this year, I've placed or volunteered my services / expertise in the following associations, clubs and cooperative...
- Vice President, Persatuan Bina Badan Negeri Pahang (Baru)
- Board Member, Koperasi Persatuan Cina Muslim Selangor Berhad
- President, Kelab Angkat Berat ..... (Penaja)
- President, Kelab Sukan Rekreasi Rover Pulapem (Penaja)
- Leader (Pemimpin), Pasukan Kelana P (Pulapem) Ibu Pejabat
As 2013 is about 3 months away, let there be more sincere volunteers that would give the time and effort for others and at the end of day a sense of self giving should overwhelm us for that effort.
If there's any reward/s to be given / received, let those who has meant to give be the judged of it, rather then asking for it and not receiving any could give false impression that those whom we are, are after worldly rewards and not the afterlife.
I give as someone before me gave his time and effort to others...
Walaikumuasalam warahmatulahi warabakatuh.
Aameen.
