This experience has shown me that sometimes the children you least expect are the ones who need help the most. When my group entered the center for the first time, a girl approached me and hugged me tightly. I thought this would be the child I would spend the most time with and that he would become my friend. As the week went on, I realized that he did this with every group that volunteered. He was so kind to every stranger who volunteered. I also talked to another girl who had a terrible accident when she was younger. She was quieter than most of the other children in the facility. She had scars on her face and wasn't as good at sports or other physical activities as everyone else. This girl reminded me of myself. I also have a scar on my face from when I was younger. It saddens me that I didn't have time to get to know her as much as I should have. I didn't realize it was my God sighting until it was the last day we were in this place. I wish I could meet her again and see how she's doing. On the last day, as our group left for the last time, I told this girl that she was beautiful no matter what anyone else said and gave her a bracelet of mine. His face lit up and he hugged me. This is something I will never forget. I enjoyed working with these
