For some reason, the act of service has truly been in my mind lately.
How can I become more charitable? How can I give, and not expect
anything in return? As humans, we have such a carnal and selfish
tendency to always seek that which benefits ourselves. But the Savior
taught through word and example, to give. To serve. And he gave his
life, no, he *sacrificed* his life, as the most ultimate example of pure
love and charity. But we know, it's not easy. In fact, it is very
contrary to our animalistic human nature to be charitable, if we
resorted back to our 'survival of the fittest' tendencies. Someday I
hope to be able to speak and act in charity, at all times. I hope to
become the kind of person who puts others before myself, instinctively.
