Visiting to Orphanage home and Old Folks Home

I am involved myself into an event which called Rendering service, is something like charity works. Today was the first time to have a pre-visit to the Homes. We had been to two places which is Children's Home and Old Folks Homes.
Once I get into the Old Folks Home, I didnt really brave enough to look at their eyes coz i dun want them to misinterpret that I am looking down or sympathy to them. I just no dare to look at their eyes coz it is quite awkward. However, all the old people there are quite friendly and kind, seemed like easy to talk with them. If I become an old woman, will my children bring me to the old folks as well? A question to myself.
After all the discussion with the PIC, we went to the next Home, which is the Children Homes.When we get there, all of the children were sitting on the floor and have their own activities. Some of the boys are playing among each other. The scene refreshed me of the movie, Slumdog millionaires, which had almost the same scenario.
The PIC even told us that most of them are Indians because Malays had their own gov to take care of them, and Chinese kids are more fortunate to have parents. Thats why most of the orphanage in that Home are Indians. After 30 minutes pre-visit, we went back to INTI.
The children over there were either abused by their parents or drug addicted parents.
Environment is a issues that will affect children's development. I am lucky enough to have a happy family and parents and so so many people who love me and care about me.
So, as much as I can do is to share my love to them.Hope that they can have a happy life too~~
