 Special Olympics Teaches Value to NAAAP
It's the small things in life that really matter. Yet it is
the small things that we seem to take for granted in everyday
life. Nowhere was this more clear to me than at this year's
Special Olympics.
I was there with the other members of NAAAP (National
Association of Asian American Professionals). We
were supposedly volunteering, but really we were all learning
these important small things. Learning that no matter which
one of the athletes came out of the water first, they really
were all winners.
 But really everyone
there was a winner that day. The athletes got to show their
stuff, us volunteers were able to feel the pride that comes
with helping others; and the families were able to have fun
watching the competition.
Sure us NAAAP members only did the little things that day.
Some were rushing by in a frenzy setting up all the water
and ice for the contestants. Others were running around unloading
trucks and handing out Oreos. Maybe NAAAP isn't saving the
world, but isn't it the little things in life that make the
biggest difference?
