Abul Khair: Life is full of various events and experiences. But all of these are not equally important, enjoyable, and memorable. All the days in our life are not the same. Only some are memorable. Memorable days are the funniest and happiest days of our life. However, memories are not just the ones that make us feel like we are in heaven. Sometimes, it is unforgettable because of the joy and fun that we got. Either good or bad, it will still be a part of our life. It will remain in our minds forever, and everywhere we walk. When we think about that day or memory, we feel very happy and want to smile, or we become sad and want to cry. In my opinion, everyone has a special memory that will never be forgotten.

I am going to share such a memorable day with you. I am Abul Khair from Bangladesh. I came to China for higher studies. China is a beautiful country. Technically, China is ahead of other countries. The people of this country are friendly and helpful. I studied Civil Engineering at Southwest Petroleum University. I was involved in different volunteer activities when I was in my country; such as Blood donation, teaching street children, etc. My passion is to serve people. There is no better service than service for the human. Serving people is a moral responsibility for all of us. Every person should serve the people. After coming to China, I wanted to be involved in different volunteer activities. I wanted to serve people. I asked the counselor of our department about the volunteer group at our University. He introduced me to them and wanted me to take part in them. Then I agreed and joined with them. Then we discussed with the Volunteer Officer to do something for the orphan kids. One of my friend Nahid joined me because he also loves volunteer work. We opened a WeChat group. Our Volunteer Officer gave us suggestions in that group about our activities. Then he told us to do our activities on Saturday and Sunday because we had no class on those days.

That day was Sunday; we decided to leave at 2 o’clock for the welfare house. I was very excited because we took chocolate, fruits, toys, balloons for the children. We went to the welfare house and chat with the kids. We were about 20 people, including 2 Bangladeshi and 18 Chinese people. The welfare house was away from our University. We went there by bus. I was very shocked to see disabled children. We went to the third floor of the welfare house. We saw many children there. They were very happy to see us. We gave them chocolates, fruits. Then we listened to children’s rhyme, although I don’t understand the Chinese Language. I hoped to learn the Chinese Language very quickly. One of my friends asked me to teach the kids. Then we taught them English letters. After that, we made balloon balls. We gave those balls to everyone. We played with them for a long time. They were friendly and cheerful. Many children came to the welfare house gate to see off when we came back. The time spent with them will be memorable for me. We left the welfare house at 6 o’clock. We all took pictures in front of the welfare house before returning.

At last, I would like to say, children are the future leaders of the nation. All of our responsibility is to make them eligible for the next day. They should get a proper education so that they can be our good leaders. And this is our responsibility.
