Every other reason is a piece of crap!! Such reasons do drive some people to realize their "Social Responsibilities" but the sad fact is that many of such reasons come with an expiry date and the moment those cease to exist the Service part is out of "Social Service".<br /><br />Social service, for me, is team work. Based on the time and effort you can put in you choose your "Project" and "Role". As you gain experience and find more time you switch projects/roles and enhance your capability/reach to help others.<br /><br />(Some nice pseudo intellectual nonsense there...lol!!)<br /><br />And please don't ask me if I do whatever good I can...because my answer would be "Hell...No!!"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5989549542024348476.post-28135570314983427332010-06-16T23:20:42.549+05:302010-06-16T23:20:42.549+05:30I've always been against the feel-good volunte...I've always been against the feel-good volunteering..
