본문 : Put a Roof over Someone's Head

Sometimes you may feel upset when you wake up suddenly from a nightmare, but you can always let out a sigh of relief.
No matter how scary the dream was, at least you’ve woken up safe and sound in your own home.
You can go back to sleep because you know your loved ones are just around the corner in their own beds.
Your home is a special place that protects you and your family from everything.
Unfortunately, this is not a reality that everyone shares.
Many people around the world don’t wake up in a soft and comfortable bed.
Instead, they open their eyes to see a dirt floor or a leaking roof.
I didn’t realize for a long time that something I take for granted could be someone else’s biggest dream.

One day, I learned about a program that needed volunteers to go to different parts of the world to help build houses for the poor.
After watching a presentation about it, I was really touched by the mission, so I decided to take part in the next volunteer trip.
I had my doubts, though.
I didn’t know anything about construction, and we’d only be there for two weeks.
Could we really change these people’s lives as the presentation had suggested?
I was going to find out soon enough.
The volunteers and I got to meet the family that would be moving into the home we were going to build the day after we arrived in Karjat, India.
This family of five was living in a one-room hut.
It was quite clear that this place was not big enough to house all the family members.
In addition to that, there were jars everywhere to catch all the rainwater dripping from the roof.
With all these jars on the floor, there was hardly any space to sit, let alone lie down.
It was shocking to see how they were living.
After meeting them, I felt even more determined to build them a beautiful home.

There were clear skies and temperatures over 30˚C that first week. 
Under the burning sun, we carried bricks, mixed concrete, and dug holes for pipes. 
We had to slowly take apart the family’s hut to get more bricks and other materials for the new house. 
Every morning, the family and their neighbors would provide breakfast for everyone. 
Then, all of us—the volunteers, community members, and the family—would start working. 
We would share food and stories from time to time. 
When evening came, we were all very tired and sweaty, but we were happy.
After another week, the home was finally finished. 
On the last day, we had a party to celebrate the completion of the new house. 
It was the best way to end such an incredible experience. 
The entire community was there. Everyone was dancing or crying tears of joy. 
I will never forget the looks on the faces of the family as they waved goodbye to us.

As I look back on this trip, I find it amazing that so many different people came together to build a house for a family they’d never met. 
For many of us, it was the first time we’d ever built a house. 
The work was hard, but not one person ever stopped smiling or even complained. 
I’m thankful for the friendships I’ve made through this trip. 
In addition, I learned so much from the other volunteers, the community members, and this family. 
I thought I was there to give, but I received so much more in return. 
This experience has inspired me to continue building houses for others.
I hope it will also encourage my friends and family members to help out in the future.

Although two weeks may not seem like a long time, I had the chance to make new friends, learn about a different culture, and, most importantly, do something that makes the lives of others better. 
I am so glad that this family now has a safe place where they can lay their heads. 
I believe everyone deserves a decent home. 
Right now, there are still many people around the world without a place to live. 
They are the reason why ordinary people like me want to go out there and help put a roof over their head.

Sometimes you may feel upset when you wake up suddenly from a nightmare, but you can always let out a sigh of relief.
때때로, 여러분은 악몽을 꾸다가 갑자기 깨어날 때 당황스러움을 느낄지도 모르지만, 여러분은 항상 안도의 한숨을 내쉴 수 있습니다.

No matter how scary the dream was, at least you’ve woken up safe and sound in your own home.

Many people around the world don’t wake up in a soft and comfortable bed.
세계 곳곳의 많은 사람들은 부드럽고 편안한 침대에서 일어나지 않습니다.

Instead, they open their eyes to see a dirt floor or a leaking roof.
대신에, 그들은 눈을 떠 흙바닥이나 빗물이 새는 지붕을 봅니다.

I didn’t realize for a long time that something I take for granted could be someone else’s biggest dream.
오랫동안 제가 당연하게 여기는 어떤 것이 다른 누군가에게는 가장 큰 꿈일 수 있다는 것을 깨닫지 못했습니다.

One day, I learned about a program that needed volunteers to go to different parts of the world to help build houses for the poor.
어느 날, 저는 가난한 사람들을 위해 집을 짓는 것을 돕기 위해 세계의 다양한 곳들로 갈 자원봉사자들이 필요한 한 프로그램에 대해 알게 되었습니다.

After watching a presentation about it, I was really touched by the mission, so I decided to take part in the next volunteer trip.
그것에 대한 발표를 본 후에, 그 사명에 의해 감동받아서, 저는 다음 자원봉사 여행에 참여하기로 결심했습니다.

I had my doubts, though.
그래도 저는 의심이 들었습니다.

I didn’t know anything about construction, and we’d only be there for two weeks.
저는 건축에 대해 아무것도 몰랐고, 우리는 오직 두 주 동안 거기에 있을 뿐일 것입니다.

Could we really change these people’s lives as the presentation had suggested?
그 발표가 제시했던 것처럼 우리가 정말로 이 사람들의 삶을 바꿀 수 있을까요?

I was going to find out soon enough.
전 바로 곧 알아내게 될 것입니다.

The volunteers and I got to meet the family that would be moving into the home we were going to build the day after we arrived in Karjat, India.
자원봉사자들과 저는 우리가 인도의 카르자트에 도착한 다음날에 건설할 예정인 집으로 이주하기로 된 그 가족을 만나게 되었습니다.

This family of five was living in a one-room hut.
이 5인 가족은 방 하나인 오두막에서 살고 있었습니다.

It was quite clear that this place was not big enough to house all the family members.
이 장소는 모든 그 가족구성원들을 수용할 만큼 충분히 크지 않다는 것은 분명했습니다.

In addition to that, there were jars everywhere to catch all the rainwater dripping from the roof.
그것에 더하여, 지붕에서 떨어지는 모든 빗물을 받기 위해 모든 곳에 단지들이 있었습니다.

With all these jars on the floor, there was hardly any space to sit, let alone lie down.
바닥에 있는 모든 이런 단지들 때문에, 눕기는 고사하고 앉을 어떤 공간도 거의 없었습니다.

It was shocking to see how they were living.
어떻게 그들이 살고 있었는지 보는 것은 충격적이었습니다.

After meeting them, I felt even more determined to build them a beautiful home.
그들을 만난 후에, 저는 그들에게 아름다운 집을 지어주겠다는 결심이 훨씬 더 단호해졌음을 느꼈습니다.
