If there is one thing for certain that I always want to do, it helps people. The idea of caring for someone simply for wanting the best for them is something I strive for. When my grandmother passed away suddenly, there was no one to care for my great-grandfather. With all of his preexisting health conditions as well as just being of old age, he wasn't capable of doing things on his own. I took it upon myself to become his caregiver. Being able to that for the time I had left with him, made me realize that I do like giving people a sense of security and comfort. The idea that they know there is someone there for them who not only can help them with what they need but be a friend to them as well.
