cupcakes because they make everyone feel better

I am a service oriented person. I believe that I, and everyone else, have been put on this earth to bless the lives of dozens, maybe even hundreds or thousands, of people. 
There is no greater thing you can do than to make someone's life better than it was before you came into it. Even just touching one persons life is a reason to live and to get up every morning and to put a smile on your face. 
I want to make a difference and I want to help people feel better about themselves, even if it's just for a moment, because a talent I have is seeing the good in people. And if I can see the good in them, why would I keep that to myself?
I tell strangers something nice about their appearance on a daily basis and I tell friends something special about their personality because that's something that I can do to make their life better. 
Because of this realization I am figuring some things out: 
That's why I want to be on student council because I feel like I would be more able to make a difference on a school wide scale. 
This is why I want to be a doctor so I can participate in the Doctors without Borders program in Africa. Because I want to heal their wounds and maybe save lives. 
That's why I want to serve an LDS mission because I want to heal wounded hearts and piece back together shattered souls.
