Jackie's New Year Message on Charity

From JCCF website:

Yesterday (31 December 2013), many of my friends were celebrating New Year's Eve. Some time during every New Year's Eve, someone will ask me: "What is your New Year's wish?" My answer is the same every time:. "I hope for world peace, no disaster" To make such a remark is easy, but it is often not as easy as people would like. Whenever there is time of war or disaster, the powerlessness of people, always makes us feel helpless. However, the old saying goes: "Do not fail to commit an act of kindness just because it is small in scale" If everyone has an indifferent attitude towards the world, then how we can see a hope for a better future?

On the contrary, if we are willing to share some love, it is always warm others and also warm the world. I look forward to developing one's own strength, to provide impetus to change the world as more people get involved in charity operations within China.

In the past year 2013, we have done some good work. With the arrival of 2014, we will continue to work hard, and perservere. I sincerely hope that someday, this wonderful world will have peace, and no longer need any charity. I do not know if that day will come but I am willing to work with everyone who has been walking on the road in pursuit of this goal.

昨天（2013年12月31日），很多朋友都在庆祝跨年。每次在跨年的时侯，总会有人问我：“你的新年愿望是什么？”我每次的答案都一样：“希望世界和平，没有灾害。”这句话说起来容易，但事实往往不随人愿。每当遇到战争或灾害的时侯，人的力量之微弱，总是让我们感到无奈。但是，古语有云：“勿以善小而不为，勿以恶小而为之。”如果大家都用冷漠的态度对待这个世界，那我们怎么能看到未来更美好的希望？相反，如果大家都愿意分享出一些爱心，那就总会温暖到他人，也温暖这个世界。我期待发挥自己的力量，带动全世界更多的人，都参与到慈善行动中来。
在过去的2013年，我们做了一些善事。已经到来的2014年，我们一定会继续努力，坚持做下去。真心希望有那么一天，这个世界太平美好，不再需要任何慈善机构。我不知道这一天会不会到来？但我愿意跟大家一起，一直走在追寻这个目标的路上。
