It is also a perfect opportunity(机会) to encourage others to take their first step toward becoming a volunteer. Making the decision to take the first step can be the biggest problem, because they don't have enough time to do volunteer work.
The following tips can help if you have some of those worries:
★Start out slowly, and don't add too much pressure(压力). Even a few hours a month can make a big difference in someone's life.
★Choose an organization(组织) with the same interest and common values.
★Invite a friend or family member to serve. It is a good experience to volunteer with them.

Everybody will have some health problems. Here are Mr. Black's problems and his doctor's advice. I hope they can help you.
Mr. Black's problems:
My name is David Black. I am always worried about something and never go out when the weather is bad, because I am worried about having a cold. I don't like to go out because I don't want to talk with others. I hardly exercise, but sometimes I take a walk in my garden. Then I take a rest. I am very tired and sick. I often have a headache, but I don't want to see a doctor, What should I do?
Dr. Smith's advice:
You are always worried about something and you don't like going out or talking to others. I think you should eat some healthy food, like fruit and vegetables, and you need to exercise more. Also, talking with others can make you feel relaxed. And if you don't feel very well, it's important for you to go to see a doctor. Then you will feel better.
This is a story that happened in the south of Russia. A mother woke up one day and found that her body couldn't move. She was sent to the hospital and soon she knew that she couldn't move because of a sudden illness. In doctors' opinion, she had no hope of getting well.
Then, the son gave up his job, and brought his mother back to the country. He worked there as a teacher and stayed beside his mother day and night, keeping massaging(按摩) her arms and legs.
Because of her son's care, the mother decided to try her best to stand up and move. So she kept trying and trying to move her fingers. And one day about six months later, she made it!
Her son's care and love helped her to get well little by little. During the next two years, she could even move her body and not long after that, she had been able to take the very first step! And after five years, she was even able to dance with the children in the village, and by now she has fully recovered(恢复)and become a dance teacher.
"I believe in the power(力量)of love,"the son said. "I always believe that she would walk again. " The true story just shows us an example of the power of love and that a miracle(奇迹)does happen.
