Mom gave me a hand-drawn map showing the location of my grandfather’s grave(坟墓). She asked me to visit it. I promised her it would be the first thing I’d do. ‎ ‎ But it wasn’t until a day before I was leaving that I found time to visit.‎ ‎ By the entrance to the cemetery(公墓), a lady was selling flowers. She had only seven left. I ‎ bought them all, but it was then that I realized the map was lost and never found.‎ ‎ I could call my mom. It was already morning in New York.‎ But the problem was that I had already told her I’d gone to the cemetery. What was I going to ‎ say?

Let me tell you what we did on 5th March.‎ ‎ As a member of volunteers, I got up early because I was too excited to sleep. In the morning, we volunteers brought some flowers and fresh fruit. As we arrived at the Happiness Nursing Home, we sent them our best wishes too. How happy they were!‎ ‎ Then we cleaned the windows and swept the floor for them. After that, some of us performed activities for them, such as singing songs and dancing. Some of us read newspaper for them. Some of us chatted with them. When it was time for us volunteers to leave, they were grateful for our kindness.‎ ‎ From this meaningful activity, I found that we are supposed to care for the old and respect them. In our daily life, we should offer our seats to them on buses. And we should treat our own grandparents more kindly.‎ ‎ If you have the chance in China, I hope you can join us.‎ Li Hua
