Since it is certainly designed to aid a party in need, it teaches us empathy, compassion, and humility. A great portion of my volunteer work was been done though scouting, however, my mother has taken me to do charitable work for others since my kindergarten years. I have brought joy by playing piano to elderly people warehoused in retirement homes, I have read for countless hours to people who could no longer see, I have prepared ethnic cuisine for an elderly German lady as she was homesick and realized she would never see her country of origin again, and I have delivered meals to disabled veterans living in the most deplorable conditions one could imagine. I realize these activities have nothing to do with engineering at all; however, they make us gain a deeper appreciation for the fortunes of some while providing a realization of the misfortunes of others. As my uncle Tony, an engineer from Luxembourg, always proclaimed: “Do not envy the few people who are ahead of you, but rather take a look at the masses behind you and appreciate what you do
