Hi guys,
Hope you all are doing good. I am doing well too.
I was wondering whether really doing good deeds for others helps us in life??!! I don't want to sound pompous but it's a fact that I took care of both my parents selflessly.
The way my life is going on I no longer strongly feel for this quote. I know we say don't compare your life with others but still we all do and I am one of many.
People at my age are settled in life and career. They got married, have kids and got settled in professional life as well. I don't have any of these things.
I am clueless about what I want to do in life or which kind of job I want to do. I have many gaps in my job profile which is making hard for me to get a job.
As most of you know, I had got job opportunity, gave interviews, got selected and an offer letter but i didn't join as my priority was to manage home and take care of mom.
I hope to get some direction in my life. I am not able to live my life happily since a long time. I am very stressed all the time and take meds for it which are prescribed by my psychiatrist.
I want to believe in this saying and keep the hope alive. Have a good day!! Take care!!

I believe helping others when we can is one of the reasons we live.
I am so sorry you are stressed and I pray you get the help that is available.
I can have compassion for your situation as I know my son also is some of these.

I am sorry you been thinking about this and the stress. I know that deep inside your heart you want to help your parents. What is important now is the desire of your heart. You are not alone in your battles dear. .

Thanks for your kind words. I know I am not alone. Have my family with me. I guess sometimes these thoughts arise when nothing turns out in life, we are able to only see what's missing rather than seeing what we do have. Hoping for good days. Take care

What do you like to do, I believe what ever you do in life comes back to you. Just keep looking.

I would say that a good deed is never wasted.
Maybe one day, it will be your turn to receive such a good deed from someone else too.

@Rashnag Well, if we are still living, we have that going for us, and I do not think that absolutely nothing will turn out in one's life.
There is always something to be gained, or learned from most life experiences, no matter how mundane they might seem
