    My son Daniel began surfing at the age of 13. After school each day he put on his wet suit and waited to be challenged by three-to-six-foot waves. Daniel's love for the ride was tested one 1 afternoon.

    "Your son's been in an accident," the lifeguard(救生员)reported to my 2 Mike over the phone hurriedly." 3 he came up to the top of the water, the point of the board was headed toward his eye."

    Mike rushed our son to the hospital. He 4 26 stitches(缝合)from the corner of his eye to the bridge of his nose.

    I was 5 home from a meeting while Daniel's eye was being stitched. Mike drove 6 to the airport after they left the doctor's office. He greeted 7 at the gate while Daniel was waiting in the car.

    "Daniel?" I questioned. I remember thinking the 8 must have been terrible that day.

    "He's been in an accident,but he's going to be fine." Mike comforted me.

    I ran to the car. My son reached out both arms, crying, "Oh, Mom, I'm so glad you're home."

    I sobbed(抽泣)in his arms, telling him how 9 I felt about not being there when the lifeguard called.

    "It's okay, Mom," he said. "I'll be fine. The doctor said I can go back in the water in eight days."

    Was he 10? I wanted to tell him that he wasn't allowed to go near water again until he was 35, but 11 I controlled myself.

    He kept asking me to let him go back on the 12 for the next seven days. One day after 13 "No" to him for the 100th time, he beat me at my own game.

    "Mom, you taught us never to 14 what we love."

    I gave in. Back then Daniel was just a boy with deep 15 for surfing. Now he is among the top 25 surfers in the world.

    17-year-old Brennan Agranoff, a colorblind boy, started his custom sock business in middle school, with a small loan(贷款)he got from his parents. Up till now, he has sold over $1 million worth of socks online in the last four years.

    Brennan thought of the idea for his custom sock company at just 13 years old. He was attending a high-school basketball game in his hometown of Sherwood, Oregon, and noticed that many kids his age were wearing the same white Nike sport socks. The boy told himself that if these white plain sacks were so popular with kids, then some cool custom designs would surely be an even greater hit.

    But the boy didn't tell his parents about the business idea immediately. He spent six months researching things like printing machines and technology and drawing up a business plan. Only when he had everything planned out did he ask his parents for a loan. "They thought the idea was a little out there," Brennan recently told CNN Money, but he kept pushing, and finally received a $3,000 loan to start his company. Then he began to work on his own designs. The fact that he was colorblind didn't stop him and he has created aver 200 designs now.

    Business was slow the first year, but then Brennan started pushing his HoopSwagg products heavily on the Internet. Orders soon started coming in in large numbers, and HoopSwagg became a popular brand among custom sock lovers. Right now, his designs can be found on HoopSwagg website, Amazon and eBay.

    Four years after starting his business, Brennan has achieved great success while balancing(平衡)school, house chores and his social life. And he says he loved every minute of it.

    Every night in Jinan University in Guangzhou, a group of students plays diabolo(空竹)as a crowd watches on in amazement.

    Chen Zhelun, 25, a Malaysian-Chinese started the diabolo club, which helps to increase the popularity of this traditional Chinese game, He is one of many students expressing their interest in the country's cultural heritage(通产)by starting clubs.

    The diabolo, which came from China, is popular among Chinese living in Malaysia.

    "We played diabolo from primary school onward. I thought I could find someone to play with in China, but only a few students knew about it. So I started a club to develop it," says Chen.

    To Chen's surprise, the old game has interested a huge crowd--more than 1,000 students have joined the club.

    "Itkeeps your body strong and it's fun," says Chen.

    But some prefer quieter activities. Every weekend, one classroom in Shenzhen University is always crowded, but it's unusually silent. The members of Lanting Calligraphy Club are writing Chinese characters with traditional brushes.

    Fan Dongling, 21,a student in Shenzhen university, says it's a shame that young people no longer enjoy the beauty of Chinese characters.

    Although her club is quiet. Fan says it keeps members healthy, mentally and physically.

    "Some students think traditional things are outdated. They like celebrating Western festivals like Christmas or Valentine's Day, but they seldom pay attention to traditional ones."says Kong Yanquan, 21,a student in Guangxi University.

    As head of the traditional Chinese local operas club. Kong plans to put modern elements(元素)into traditional culture to get students to join his club.

    "I think it's everyone's duty to save and develop China's traditional culture among young people," he says.

    Technology is everywhere. We see it any place we go and, in fact, almost all of us carry some piece of technology with us every time we leave the house. What I always forget, though, is just how useful and powerful technology can be when we want to help others.

    There is not a single room in my house that does not have some electronic devices(设备)lying around in it. Whenever I am at home, I am almost always using at least one electronic device. If you walked into my living room on any given day, you would find that, first, I have the television on. At the same time, I usually have my laptop resting on my knee, or I will be using my mobile phone. Even when I'm not at home I am always using my phone, and at work or in cafes, I sit down and connect to the local wireless network on my laptop.

    I must say that I waste a lot of time on the computer and the time I spend on it could be much better spent if I were to take up a little online volunteering.

    The technology we carry about everywhere can have a great power to do good for the world and to help others and recently I discovered just how much online volunteering there is to do in the world. From using your language skills to do translations, to developing and managing projects and helping with IT work, there is so much that so many people can do to help people in their own countries and across the world. The United Nations, in fact, has a huge page with "VolunteersRecruited" on its website.

    This work can support the poor and help charities who cannot pay for staff. Many organizations only require you to work an hour a week-some even less. And the support provided by online volunteers can really help make a difference to those in need.
