Servant Leadership

I didnt know what to expect for the ServiceLearning Camp. while i was walking over to the school, i was praying in my heart to allow my group members to have teamspirit and be enthusiatic about this whole camp. and my prayers were answered! (:

what was memorable was the feet-washing by the sec3 to the sec2 as a representative of showing what it really meant as servant leadership. to me, it was just a feet-washing ceremony. i even thought that the students will make commotions and laugh at this. but it turn out otherwise. it was something that i took back and really pondered.

they cried. some of them sobbing, not wanting their leaders to wash their feets feeling that there isnt really a need for that. some struggled, holding back their tears as the leaders wipe and clean theirs. as i looked at every one of them, i felt emotional within. i was wrong about saying that the ceremony was just an ordinary one. i can see that they really go through thick and thin together as a whole student leader board. this is one relationship that could last long.

---------------------

surely it is not by chance or by luck. being a mentor for the first time. i made friends, learning about life-long skills, being independent and more. i think it is up to us to reflect whether this is the life that we want to carry on living. or do we want to live a more life-filled one?
