PESSIMISTIC, BUT I WILL TRY

I reside in a small urban area with diverse social classes. Among the challenges faced by my community, I am particularly interested in addressing issues related to cleanliness, environmental aesthetics, and reading habits.

However, it is tricky to influence people to improve the environment when they believe everything is fine. In conversations or meetings in my neighborhood or with my friends, I try to casually bring up topics about managing household waste, particularly organic waste, by suggesting composting. I also encourage them to plant trees in empty areas. The government provides trees for free; individuals can request specific types.

I love reading. But it’s rare to meet friends who share the same passion. Over the years, hardly anyone has borrowed my books. Fostering a love for reading is still quite challenging. Reading is still an exclusive hobby.

There are many ways I can contribute to improving my community, but I need to be realistic about my patience levels—hahaha. If there’s a community group working on a social project nearby, donating to support their activities is good. And frankly, it’s an easier option rather than doing it by myself.
