I personally feel that I lack a place or meaning in society. When I was younger my purpose was just to be young and innocent. Once I entered high school and could work, I felt like I lacked a purpose. If anything, I feel like my purpose is to prepare for a greater purpose that will come after college. Some of my friends have jobs but only to earn personal spending cash. They do help support their families making themselves a contributing member of society. I feel the age of having no purpose but to enjoy life has been extended.
I have been doing community service since freshman year. Doing service definitely helps me feel that I do matter to society. Service allows me to help make my community the wonderful community it is. The service I have most enjoyed is serving food for the homeless through PADS. I felt I truly helped people even if was only for one night. I also enjoyed being a guest speaker at S.E.E.D., because it made me feel that I was bettering the members mindsets.
