I think we reap as we sow! To get a better behaviour and conduct from others we need to behave ourselves in the way are expecting others to do for us? Similarly if we are indifferent towards others ,we also may like to get the same behaviour from others!
I personally always think about any man if he/she in trouble by keeping myself in his/her place, so that I can understand the trouble what he/she is having at that moment! This helps me in understanding the problems of others more, in intensified manners!
This nature of mine has labelled me as a impulsive natured person! I am not an impulsive natured person,but I every time think, 'If had I been in his/her place...then What?', and then accordingly I go for help out the people voluntarily, as I firmly believe in the saying that we reap as we sow!
What is your take on this point! Do you ever think on these lines?Please respond! Thanks !

Hi AK!
I think you show empathy and it could be termed as a positve trait and this also proves that you are very caring and sensitive towards others. I feel you should keep it up because it is not an easy thing to show empathy and those who successfully are able to implement succeed in their life and earn good respect.

Hi Dear dpk! I really don't know if it is easy or not,this nature has come tome from my father! He was a man who used to go out the way to help the needy, though he was not all that rich, that he has some surplus wealth with him to distribute others! His small gestures inspired me lot in my life. Once when I was kid he left our home almost at a late night along with his friend, to donate blood to his wife who was admitted in a Hospital! I was too small to understand the importance of this incidence, but later as I was growing up people used to talk about his generosity and his helping nature, where from possibly I got influenced! Now having grown up I feel it is our duty to support the needy if really we are in a position to do so as we are suitably rewarded for our deeds by the Almighty!
Otherwise also how can we be happy if we are surrounded by unhappy people? Thanks for responding dear friend! Your kind words boosted my Morales!

I am really glad to hear that you inherited this positive trait from your father. I feel like 'saluting' your father for his blood donation gesture. Hope you will continue to help others like your father. All the best.

Yes, I do. And, I think that's what makes me understand people more. If we put ourselves in other peoples's shoes, we understand why they do things and how they do things, and we begin to accept them as they are. A lot of division among people comes from us not understanding other people.

Hi Dear gloryacam! I appreciate your views, a lot of division among the people comes because of failing to understanding the people!One can understand people only one country to be in the shoes of others! Thus to understand other's problem,we should really get to their level and think like them to understand the situation and the people in the situation!

Hi AKRao 
Of course, I am that kind of a guy who always thinks... "What If... It was with me" and I believe it does help many a times. Though we are not in the same shoes and so we can never be assured of the practical situations that the other one faced, but yes, it helps me get some idea and a better way to get out of such a situation in case it ever happened with me.
Also, I believe it is because I try to seek out knowledge from anything, this goes well most of the times.
For the as you sow... of course, it is what happens everytime and you cannot escape this reality

Hi Dear Sids! I think it is a Humane way, one should have consideration for others instead of being indifferent! This can better be understood if only we can imagine ourselves in their shoes! I am happy that you think on similar lines and this shows your concern for others! May God Bless You!
