I do believe that helping other can bring happiness to ourselves. I think that by helping others with what they need also makes you a better person! I find joy in helping other people out. It can be anything from listening to them when they are sad, or have a problem, or helping them bring in bags of groceries. It could be helping them clean their home, or leaves in their yard. Whatever it is, I feel happy that I helped them. Shihtzumama

I do believe that helping others brings happiness. I strongly believe in helping other people. Not only do I try to help the important people in my life such as friends and family but if I see a need from a stranger, I try to be as helpful as I can. Of course one needs to be careful with strangers so that you are not taken advantage of. For example, when a homeless person asks for money for food, I will sometimes buy them a small snack from a nearby shop and give that to them instead of the money. I usually don't trust homeless people to spend any money they get on what they say they are going to use it for.

Yes, I prefer to help others by taking action rather than giving donation in terms of money. Today's society just make us have to teach the younger generation to keep a distance from the strangers. That's sad but we can do nothing to help if we want our child to be safe.

yes definitely. it's such a nice feeling if you're able to help those people who are in need. and it's more appreciated by them because it would really help them a lot.
