Hello mylotters
I read somewhere that whatever you give to
others without any expectations,comes back
to you many folds. And I believe in this.
So I offer my help whenever someone needs it.
Particularly is some one needs help for
education purposes I do help to the extent
I can. Does anyone share my belief in this
regard? will you help someone or give some excuse?
Happy mylotting

Definitely! It's important to help out whoever needs it. It doesn't matter to me if someone is related to me or not, if they need help, I will give it. Keep doing your good deeds!

Yeah, i like to help people out when they need it. Overall I can only do so much to help. Like the other day, while I was waiting in the car for my mum to get something from the shops, the parking lot in front of me had a trolley in the way of it, and then this big fancy 4X4 car rolls into the car space with the trolley in it, there were 2 other cars either side of him. So he was slowly driving into the space and also trying to get out of other cars' ways but a;so being careful not to hit the trolley with his car. So I got out the car, ran over and took the trolley out of his way and put it in the trolley bay. When I returned, the guy in the car came walking past me and said thank you with a big cheery smile. i felt so good about taht, i like to help people out when ever i can. =)

Hello mylotter,
Thanks for your response. It is great.
Your inclination to help matters. However small

it will be appreciated

Hello Shantha. Yes, ofcourse I share your belief. And, I have helped people not related to me many times and in many ways I could. This had to do with education, expenses, training on the job, advice in adjusting to new countries and environments, and more. I am very glad the people I had helped are doing quite well in their careers.


myLot reputation of 91/100. shantha_45 (206)   ranked 823 out of 835 in help others  3 years ago

Hello friend,
Thanks for your response.
It is very nice to hear from you
that you also share my opinion in this regard.
Yes It is great satisfaction to see those whom
you have offered help doing well in life.
Life is great

Yes I do believe this also. It always come back in a good way for you. It is like doing something good and later on when you least expected the favor will be returned to you.

Or if you don't help maybe one day you will need help and no one will be there to help you because you didn't lend a helping hand to help any one.

I always help people even if there not related to me. It makes me feel good and it is like a reward for my self that I have done a good thing today or any day.

I feel you just never know one day you may need help your self and the favor will be returned.


myLot reputation of 91/100. shantha_45 (206)   ranked 823 out of 835 in help others  3 years ago

Hello emilie, Thanks for your response.
Yes you are correct. It is very true that
the unslefish help you offer is mostly returned
to you manyfolds.
I have several experiences.
I
Have a nice day and happy mylotting


myLot reputation of 80/100. emilie2300 (1172)   ranked 30 out of 835 in help others  3 years ago

Yes I have also and the most rewarding thing is feeling good about doing it.


myLot reputation of 91/100. shantha_45 (206)   ranked 823 out of 835 in help others  3 years ago

Hello Emilie I feel feeling good is the best
reward anyone can have. If one feels good then good
health follows automatically and with that every good
thing in life.I hope you agree with me
Have a nice day


myLot reputation of 80/100. emilie2300 (1172)   ranked 30 out of 835 in help others  3 years ago

Yes Most definitely agree with you feeling good about your self makes you healthy also and comes automaticly.

I never expect the returns of my helping to others. Actually i just love helping others at times when they need someone. I keep myself in that persons position and feel very bad when no one comes to my help.
I always help my friends with studies and ready always to share my knowledge best as i could. More than myself i care for others and this quality has many times left me in problems of loosing things. Here, as u help other by giving your costly materials for them to use and if they not take care or run away with it and dont give you back , how would you feel. So now i have stopped giving things to other instead do them by my being.


myLot reputation of 95/100. de_angel97 (172)   ranked 824 out of 835 in help others  3 years ago

I share the same belief just as you do. i won't expect a good returns from other people, but i just tend to put myself in other people's shoes.


myLot reputation of 91/100. shantha_45 (206)   ranked 823 out of 835 in help others  3 years ago

Hello coolcat,thanks for your response.
Yes some times people tend to exploit
our good nature and try to take advantage of our
urge to offer help.But we cannot help it.
We can help others in such a way that doesnot
put us into trouble and we dont meet any loss.

Helping others is a very good thing in life. There may be some people who don't believe in doing so. But, according to my experiences in life, helping people really makes me happy and feel good about myself. Even if there is no reward for helping someone, making ourselves feel good about ourselves will really help us in the long run and help us in living a happy life...Now, that's a blessing indeed. My other happy by helping them makes us happier in life.


myLot reputation of 91/100. shantha_45 (206)   ranked 823 out of 835 in help others  3 years ago

Hi friend thanks for your response.
You are absolutely correct.
While we help someone, we donot expect anything
in return.But the feeling that we are able to halp someone
to come out of their difficult situation gives a satisfaction
and certainly as you said it makes us feel good.
This sense of feeling good in my opinion is
very important to remain happy
Have a nice day.
Happy mylotting

i love to help people, but nowadays lot of criminal take advantage on our kindness. recently what had happened in my place is when a fren of mine trying to help someone he found laying unconscious in the middle of road, it happened at nite time when not so many vehicle pass by. so when he's trying to help this guy suddenly out of nowhere one of the guy fren came and ask my fren his wallet, and the guy who pretend to collapse woke up and help his fren. with this kind of incident it make me think twice to help..


myLot reputation of 95/100. de_angel97 (172)   ranked 824 out of 835 in help others  3 years ago

Hi Izardy, this situation happened to me before. My friend and I met this situation where there was a girl lying on the road. There was other kid stopping our car asking for help. If it was me alone, i will never get out from the car and check what is happening and it was 2 am that time. But my friend felt we should check whether that girl is ok or not. Then he get out from the car and checked that girl, we brought this girl to the nearby hospital. I'm so glad there is nothing bad happen to us. The things happened to your friend really really make us think twice before helping someone else.


myLot reputation of 91/100. shantha_45 (206)   ranked 823 out of 835 in help others  3 years ago

Hello izardy,
Thanks for your response.
Yes sometimes it happens as you have mentioned.
Though we get the urge to offer help from your experience
I feel that we should check our neighbourhood
also before offering to help someone
who ssems to be in need.It always happens that
there are always somepeople to take advantage of
other's goodness.

Hi shantha, a nice discussion and yes I have helped a lot of people who are not related to me and even whom I have not met. I had given money to pay the term and exam fees for my son's classmate, as she had lost her father suddenly and as they did not have any other source of income after that she was about to dicontinue her education, now she has graduated and found out a very good job for herself and I am very happy about it. This is just an instance. I have and keep on helping people in different ways according to my capacity.


myLot reputation of 91/100. shantha_45 (206)   ranked 823 out of 835 in help others  3 years ago

Thanks yogambal for your response.
Yes I have often helped people in education
of their children.When someone comes and askes for
help, it looks as though they are very sure that they
will get the help they are seeking.It gives
great peasure to see them smiling when
they are
offered the help needed.
Have a nice day

Yup, i do share the same belief as you. But I'm not looking for any good as in return, i just tend to put myself in people's shoes. Last time i used to fetch people which is not related to me when I'm on my way back to the hostel too. Especially when it's night time, it can be very dangerous for a girl to walk back by herself. So, one day i saw this girl walking back by herself and it's going to rain, so I made a u-turn so that I can fetch her. I invite her to join me, and by the way I'm a girl also which I don't think I can do anything bad to her. That 5 minutes drive back to our hostel really gave me the awkward feeling. when we reached, she looked at me weirdly, and without a 'thanks', she quickly get out from my car. Sigh.. I'm speechless, since after that I'm a bit reluctant to fetch people anymore.


myLot reputation of 91/100. shantha_45 (206)   ranked 823 out of 835 in help others  3 years ago

Hello angel thanks for your response.
Yes sometimes we comeacross people
who behave as though it is our obligation
to halp them. The other day it so happened
that a girl was given a lift and after alighting
from the vehicle she just walked away without
bothering to utter a minimum thanks.
Such incidents really puts one in an awkward
situation.From next time we become cautious about
whomwe are helping
Happy mylotting


myLot reputation of 95/100. de_angel97 (172)   ranked 824 out of 835 in help others  3 years ago

Ya, sometimes people response can make us fed up to help out other people. But i think that we should not just let this 'people that take for granted' distract us from trying to help people. In my four years doing degree, i did help quite a lot of girl, i mean fetching anonymous girl while I'm on my back to the hostel. Last few months ago, i met this girl and she asked me whether i did fetch her back few years ago, and she so grateful for what i did. I believe if we try to help other people, may be just a very small favor, it can mean a lot for somebody else.


myLot reputation of 91/100. shantha_45 (206)   ranked 823 out of 835 in help others  3 years ago

Hi angel thanks for responding.
Yes you are correct. We should not be let down by
some particular incident and stop our good deeds.
We cannot afford to lose the mental satisfaction
such deeds give us.

I remember helping people who are not my blood relations...I feel very happy helping such people because they are very grateful than the blood relations...I do not know the number of times I helped people because I personally feel that these things should not be counted but you should continue doing it...:-)


myLot reputation of 91/100. shantha_45 (206)   ranked 823 out of 835 in help others  3 years ago

Hi radx thanks for your response.
I agree with you that we should not
bother about other peoples reactions
and continue what we are doing. For many years
I have been in administrative post.
There were many employees of lower grades
who were not confirmed of their services
for many years sometimes morethan 10.
I have always made it a point to confirm their
services before I leave that place.
Even now I receive calls fromthem enquiring about my and family's
welfare and believe me it is a great feeling
