I have a great group of friends that are always there for me when i neeed a helping hand,but i am also there for them if they ever have a problem and needs someone to listen to them or offer advice.I could never repay all the help that they have given me,but they know that if there was something i could do to help them i would be there for them like they are for me.

These are the unsung heroes, ordinary men and women who lead extraordinary lives. The world needs lots of them around. You are blessed to have them in your lives as you are to them in their lives. It pays to help...

I have a friend who recently felt obligated to help some people that s/he really didn't want to help. I would never do that. Sometimes when we reach out to help others they "pay" us back, but other times it is somebody else who helps us in turn. What comes around usually goes around, however.

I think that you are right.I used to help out alot of people who were elderly like get a few bits from the shop,cleaning aswell as get drs and take them to the hospital.At one stage i was relied on by an elderly lady aswell as her family as i lived over the road from her.I was forever getting stuck at hers and trying to say goodbye,but i think that she was really lonely as she never got to see anyone.

Well that's what being good friends is about, isn't it? You help each other when it's needed. It may not always be equal, but real friends don't keep count. And they don't take advantage of each other either.

I think that you are right.I try to help people out in other ways if i can as i can not help them in the physical way like doing chores,but i am always here if they need a ear to listen,advice or anything else that i can do to help.

Just be a good friend to these people. I think alot of us do not fully appreciate a good friend for what they are. Devoted, faithful and all the other things that go into being a long standing friend. A good one doesn't really expect or want anything in return. Their joy comes from knowing you appreciate them and regard them as you obviously do.

Helping hand - Being good is commendable, but only when it is combined with doing good is it useful. ~Author Unknown
Hey jugs!! people need people and we all need someone who takes care of us as we take care of them. It may come in different ranges depending one has to offer. It's nice to live each day knowing someone cares a lot of the things you do and just thinking for your sake. Of course you would do the same to them because they are important to you as well.

Helping others people is a way of life. There's no man in an island. We need other people. We connect to them. We share lives to them. If you are having a hard life with trouble always remember your friend who watch your back, who knows your blind spot.

I think that it is nice when there are people that you can turn to knowing that they will always be at the other end of the phone aswell as on your door step as soon as they know that you are having problems.

Usually I am the one helping but it's about PC 'cause I know more then them.If I know he can do it by himself I don't help him and I say to try to do it and if I know he can't I'll help him.

hi jugsjugs, everyday went by, i never had a moment that i haven't help someone.... this must be in my blood or within me... may it be in the form of effort, some advices, a little of finances, helping other in time of needs and etc. is a very fulfilling mission here on earth.... its really nice to hear that there are people like you who are also there willing to help others... God Bless you and hope you will continue to do what you are doing now....

I am one of those people who like to help others by providing advise and giving help to them. I think we are living in a world where not as many people help each other and we should help one another. Most people would walk by rather than stop and help someone. I actually witnessed this some time ago and nobody stopped to help this lady, but I did.

Hi jugsjugs, This also says a lot about you because these are the people that you attract into your life. People who have lots of friends who remember them when they need help are friendly and pleasant people themselves, always there to help another. I know lots of people that others, even their family will avoid because of their nasty attitude toward others. Blessings.

hi jugsjugs I know what you mean I have one friend like that and she has helped me through so much and always has been there for me, and she knows I will always be there for her too. in fact I owe her some money and was going to pay her back then all hell broke loose in my life and I have never had the money to repay her, and I have mentioned this to her so many times and she always says don't worry about it. I am so glad you have those kinds of friends and especially right now. God bless you and keep you and help you get to feeling alot better.

It's important to have a supportive cast of friends. Life is hard at times. It gets easier when someone else is there, willing to lend a helping hand whenever the opportunity arises.

True friends are treasures and it really feels good to know that you have them behind you come what may and accept you for who and what you are. These are the ones who are difficult to find and you are lucky to have them.

Good for you. You have a good husband, some good friends and you yourself is a kind lady I assume. You know when you're kind likewise people around you are kind also. Keep it up and hope you feel great today.
