Explanation:
Some of my friends and I decided to volunteer at a nursing home once a month. We walked into the home to introduce ourselves to the staff, who would then demonstrate what activities we would be helping with.
We would be able to assist the residents as they take a nice stroll around the outside of the building. They might want to talk, or stay silent. We could listen to their stories and respond even if we don't agree with opinion. We could help clean rust off of the water spouts. There was so much to do, we could accomplish a lot while we were there. I decided to start outside, since the weather was beautiful. I was skipping along the building, when I accidentally hit my shin on one of the water spouts I was going to clean off. Luckily, it didn't hurt or dampen my helping spirit.

Social media is addicting because you can crave validation from others with likes and comments. It could also be addicting because you feel you are not good enough like these other men and women so you look at their body and compare it to yours.

However, Charlie undergoes surgery and treatment that stimulates improvements in his situation and little by little we see Charlie's writing getting more correct and refined showing that his intellectual capacity is progressing.
