I often the lights I leave my room.

    Conor Grennan was unwilling to be a volunteer. The 29-year-old American was not sure if he had the skills or a strong feeling for it.

    However, he went to work at an orphanage(孤儿院)in Nepal. His first thought was to make people impressed.

    "I thought that if I volunteered just once, could retell the story over and over, "Grennan said in a Huffington Post article.

    However, his three-month stay in the orphanage turned into an unusual experience. It was in 2004 and Grennan had given up his job to begin a year-long around-the-world trip. His first three months were spent in Nepal.

    When he arrived in the village, he knew nothing about the children or the local culture. When he opened the gate of the Little Princes Children's Home, he was faced by the excited children.

    The young American ended up caring for 18 children. He later discovered that they were trafficked(被拐卖的)children. So he walked through the mountains with great difficulty to find the kids' families. "I started walking with photos of the kids," he told the Reuter's' reporter. "I would show up in villages and show photographs around. I went with 24 photos, and I found 24 families."

    At the same time, he put his heart into Nepalese culture.

    Grennan said, "Volunteering is the single best way to see how the rest of the world lives."

    He also encouraged others to do what he had done. He believes that volunteering needs only making decisions to show up.

    Grennan's fight against child-trafficking has changed him. His book, Little Prince, came out last week.

Cartoonist: Charles Schulz

    Charles Schulz is true hero. For nearly 50 years, Schulz's comic strip, the Peanuts collection, has been the most well-known cartoon in the world. It has 355 million daily readers in 75 countries. On February 13th, 2000, Schulz died of cancer. But he will always be remembered by people old and young worldwide.

    In Schulz's works, he always stayed positive. He tried to give readers a happy feeling. Kids like Peanuts because the characters live a simple life and go through the same troubles as they do. He did not pick out stressful topics of the day. Instead, he always brought readers into a joyful world by writing about a happy place with simple worries.

    Schulz was also a good father of four children. It's said that he never failed to stop his work to play a pick-up baseball game or have lunch with his family. He was always very involved in his children's lives and supported their decisions. He taught them the importance of a person's inner worth. His family describes Schulz as a man with the fewest needs.

    His youngest daughter, Jill, said, "He's a fighter, but he always has bad luck." When Schulz learned his cancer was serious, he was forced to give up the job he loved-writing the Peanuts cartoons. Unluckily, Schulz died the night before the last strip of his comics came out in the Sunday papers. Some might say this was unlucky, but Jill said her father enjoyed spending his whole life writing to make people happy.

    Charles Schulz put a little comedy into our often-stressful world. He will be remembered as the world's favourite cartoonist. "You're a good man, Charles Schulz!"
