Blood Donation

What is donating blood?
We often see the sight of it.
There are many people who likes the volunteer activity,
but perhaps many of them, including myself,
have not seen the blood being used in practice.
We always give our blood without having steady fellings that
we help someone whom we do not know.

But donating blood can be a chance for people to be a kind of happy.
Because in daily life, we seldom face the case we help someone,
and if we face such a situation, it is not easy to talk to a stranger and say,
"Can I help you?" in a serious situation.
Even if in a less serious case, when we help someone,
we tend to be worried about the reaction of them or
tend to expect the repayment of the kindness.
Some people can not help anyone because they are afraid of the reaction
and of being hurt by it.
So if we give our blood, though we can not see someone who needs our help,
we certainly help someone. When we are in the mobile blood bank,
nobody requires the repayment
and everyone can be a kind person without talking to strangers.
And there are many tender hearts without patronizing attitude.

I don't have experience of blood donation. However, when I finish to read your essay, I know blood donation is a good method to help someone. If I have experience, I try to donate my blood.

Blood donation is
one of the good volunteer work,
but it is so pain that we avoid it.
I have donated blood sometimes,
but I always wander whether I do or not.

Blood donation is very good thing to help people who need blood. We can help people without doing any special thing. I want to help someone who need help without hesitating.

Hi Hiroko,

thanks for your comment to my journal.

i've never done blood donation, but someday in the future, i'm thinking to do.
i see that blood donation is the easiest way of volunteer work but i still think face-to face activities are better because the appreciation from other people can motivate us to next volunteer works.
