I have been blessed with the opportunity in my life. It took the near-death experience of my dad to make me realize that my purpose in life is to others. My dad suffered from leukemia(白血病) in 1998. the pain and treatment that he put up with inspired me to be a more kind and person. I realized life is just too and it was time for me to make some changes — do the things in life that I wanted to do without making why I couldn’t do them.
My dad a bone marrow transplant(骨髓移植) operation, and after that he was able to reuse his own “cleaned” marrow, so a donor(捐献者) was not needed. That was excellent because donors who are a match are hard to e by. That me to bee a bone marrow donor and hopefully help someone else one day. I also money for the cancer patients. Yet, I was not satisfied with just that. I had to do more, I blood every other month and seek opportunities to do other acts of kindness daily. The opportunity, some days, presents itself very and some days I have to seek it out. Either way, it es.
I would like to one of my favorite quotes（名言）with you all:
“In an average lifetime, a person about sixty-five thousand miles. That’s two and half times around the world. I wonder your steps will take you. I wonder how you’ll use the rest of the you’re given.”
I want to use my miles to create foot prints of love in this world.
