What does the Local Guides program mean to me?

We all have an aspiration or a purpose in life that we want to pursue throughout in lives. Some find it early in life yet some spend their lives figuring it out. I am fortunate enough to be part of the former as I realized the purpose of my life and that is to help people around me. Ever since I’ve realized this, I have put an active effort towards achieving that purpose. Whether it is being part of community-driven donation drives or serving in elementary classes as a teacher for the underprivileged students of my city. That is the only thing that drives me however in recent years, I’ve come to a larger chapter of understanding in my life and that is realizing how I can help people in more ways than I can imagine.

Being part of the Local Guides program is one of them. What better way of helping people out than leading them towards the right path, of helping them make more aware choices and leading them towards informed choices. If you think about it, I think that is a wonderful thing to do and be a part of. On top of that, being part of an inclusive, vibrant and diverse community is what excites me to the core. I’ve always loved to make new friends and learn from them because I’d rather read people than books, they are all same and different if one thinks about it.

I hope to add more value to the lives of people around me, to the lives of those seeking help and to those that are going to be my future community I can rely on.
