Over the semester, I have had the privilege of taking a service learning class. My class has required me to do twenty hours of service at a place called Pomona Valley Workshop also known as PVW. PVW provides a safe working environment for adults with developmental disabilities. Next Monday will be my last day of service, and I can truly say I will miss all of the people I met very much. They have shown me so much over the past few months. I have to realize that we, the able bodied are really the ones with the handicap. We are able to do so many things, yet we hold our self back and do not do them. We take for granted everything we have. For example, I was talking to one the disabled gentlemen at the workshop and was telling me about how fascinated he was with this difficult high level mathematics called Algebra. For a man who is only able to count to one hundred, Algebra was a huge deal. In his world, Algebra is something so complex and intricate, yet for us, it something that the average high school student can do. We could care less about it, but to him it was far beyond anything he could ever grasp. It made me see just how lucky I am. I am blessed with a mind and a body that is capable for doing many great things that surpass Algebra if I only try. Seeing these amazing people has inspired me to try harder and do better in the areas I need to improve upon. I really enjoyed getting to know the individuals at PVW and hope to continue my friendship with them.
