Everyday is a day of service; its included in our daily routine, whether we like it or not.
Whether you notice it or not, every move you make signifies an important component of the term "Service."
Catabolizing the significance of the word, produces such 'by the book' meaning:
1. The action of helping or doing work for someone
2. an act of assistance
The simple smile you stretch out, though your day is bad as it is? thats service
The subtle tap you make to alarm that one person who almost got hit by a bus? legit service
The lazy hand you used to reach out and return another passengers change at a jeepney? indirect service
But most often, people view "service" on another perspective; some would even tag you as "sipsip", "palakas", the list goes on.
Margaret Chase Smith once said,
"My creed is that public service must be more than doing a job efficiently and honestly. It must be a complete dedication to the people and to the nation with full recognition that every human being is entitled to courtesy and consideration, that constructive criticism is not only to be expected but sought, that smears are not only to be expected but fought, that honor is to be earned, not bought."
Though how unfair people become at times, may we not forget the true value of service, that is "Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile." Keep this in mind people, do what you think benefits most, and you'll find yourself finding your life's sole purpose.
After all, thats what we are trained for, right?
