"I realized for the first time the value of my life," said Jerry Yan after bidding farewell to his sponsored child in the countryside of Mongolia at the end of last month.
Being appointed as the organization's first Asia regional ambassador for 10 countries - Japan, Korea, Hong Kong, Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Mongolia, and Taiwan, the celebrated star has just returned from Mongolia, where he experienced windy chills with temperatures as low as 10-20 degrees of cold.
On this trip Jerry met two children he personally sponsors and another sponsored by his fans. Regardless of the bitter cold, sunburn on his face, and a bleeding nose due to the dry weather, Jerry said he was so deeply touched that finally he realized why it is more blessed to give than to receive.
"Perhaps I'm the one who received the most blessing from this." Jerry explained that through interaction with those children, he discovered his inner self in the simplest state.
Traveling over snow-clad desert by car for nearly 8 hours from Ulaanbaatar, Jerry and the teams from Singapore and Taiwan went to Taiwan-funded Dundgobi Area Development Project to visit families of his sponsored children.
Because of desperate poverty, Dorjtovuu's father stole other's animal and was sent to prison. His mother has since then raised five children by herself with a salary less than US$15 a month. Their situation got worse when their home was burned in 2000. However thanks to support of World Vision and the government, the mother received a new ger and a job, and is able to send the children to school now.
Jerry was told that Dorjtovuu, at a young age of 8, is tending sheep for neighbors in exchange for some food.
"Coming from a single parent headed family, I can particularly sympathize with the hardships of a single mom who has to support a family on her own." Jerry admired, "Dorjtovuu has been helping the family, but at his age I was still a trouble maker."
When finally saying goodbye, Jerry hurried Dorjtovuu back to the ger because he was worried that the child in thin clothes may not resist the bone-chilling cold outdoor. However, he himself did not leave but quietly watched through a fissure on the fence until the child walked into the ger.
About an hour's drive from the provincial capital, Jerry visited Ragchaasuren and his family after sunset. With no electricity in the ger, the family used candles for lighting and burning animals' dung for heating.
However despite their poverty, the family of 6, including the 8-year-old sponsored child Ragchaasuren and his 10-year-old sister Yanjinsuren, welcomed the visitors with their most earnest smiles, and the family members were very close to one another.
"From their smile and a very strong family bond, I learned that we should never give up hope even in very difficult circumstances." Jerry said.
Ragchaasuren and Yanjinsuren not only taught Jerry how to set a fire, ride a camel, and play like Mongolian children, but also showed him the true meaning of giving and gratefulness.
He recalled, "I held Yanjinsuren on my lap for a while. She put her tiny hands on my big palms. Though we could not communicate by words, there seemed to be deep communication between our hearts. At that moment, I discovered the value of my life, that is to give, to love
."
