Did you ever volunteer in your community to better things?
In 2000 - in my early 20ies - I volunteered for one year at an organisation helping the homeless, drug addicts, ex-alcoholics, ex-convicts to get back to a semi-normal life.
I got yelled at, physically attacked, spit on, verbally abused and still found ut this was probably the most valuable experience in my whole life.
Mainly, because the heap of shit I saw in this one year dwarves 99.98 % of all the lamenting I experience day in day out to the real insignificance it in fact bears.
Share your stories if you got em.
