As a child, I have always found joy in helping others out. After school, my friends and I would always roller skate and play street hockey for fun. I always wanted to be on Neil’s team as he was the best at roller skater out of our friend group. I remember on a Thursday evening, as the our street hockey match intensified, Neil skated aggressively and as a result ended up tripping on a rock. I saw his face clench as his elbow scraped the concrete floor. My impulse kicked in and I frantically fetched an ice pack and band aid. Not realizing it at the time, I found subtle satisfaction by putting on that band aid and taping the ice pack. It was satisfying to see him relieved of the pain and back to smiling. This was one of the first experiences
