hi,
i don't understand what else to write in my essay. the prompt is
Tell us about a personal quality, talent, accomplishment, contribution or experience that is important to you. What about this quality or accomplishment makes you proud and how does it relate to the person you are?
Here is what I have so far...
"If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap. If you want happiness for a day, go fishing. If you want happiness for a year, inherit a fortune. If you want happiness for a lifetime, help somebody." This quote is a famous Chinese proverb that my best friend told me, and this has stuck with me ever since. It is sad to see how people at my school and my community are too lazy and selfish to lend a hand. Helping others does not have to take the whole day, an hour or two would be fine too. When I volunteer at the Sunny View Retirement Home, I love do many activities with the elderly such as playing word games, taking a long stroll with them, and baking with them. It satisfies me that I was willing to give 2 hours my time to help the elderly with their needs.
What else should I add?
Thanks! [
