In my case I have helped a group of children who could not afford to pay for private lessons learn how to play a musical instrument, and quite frankly I feel guilty that in the past I had only shared my talents with Church youth, and find my myself far more "blessed" to help the wider community.
Please think about giving your time as well as your money!
I don't know. People coming up to be tearfully after a lesson and thanking me and telling me what I said is what they needed to hear and then giving me a hug is hard to beat in terms of being fulfilling.
Give me a f*****g break you moron. What a pathetic story.
