Do you think and believe that helping others will makes you better or less? How far you're going to help others in need?

Hey careguarden! I have always tried to be helpful to others
when I felt that they needed my help no matter what! I put up
with alot of crap to help certain people that I cared about
because their families believed that I had other reasons for
helping them like wanting their money even though that was
never the case! But, I always did what I felt was right because
it made me feel better and I know that God knows why I did
what I did because it came from my heart! I have no regrets
and nothing to feel guilty about! Sometimes you just have to
do what you feel is right no matter who is telling you not to!

I agree with you my friend, there are times where other people told you not to do it and avoid helping those kind of people, but it's important that we listen to our heart and do what we feel is right and good for others. It could not be easy but when it comes to helping others it will always end up right and good for them and of course for our self.
It's nice to know that you always help others and that there are still people like you who're willing to help others in need at any cost. Anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

i am a hero type of guy since my childhood days, such that i do not care if my life will be in danger as long as the other guy's life will be saved by my efforts.
but now in my fifties i think twice before doing such heroic acts again

It's usual kind of feelings of wanting,dreaming and doing things like super hero, we all love it when we're just kids. We want to do what is right and good for others, but when we get older and live reality we become hesitant and fear comes in. But we should not forget that helping others always makes us a better person more than the person we helped. Anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

One way I like to and have been helping people in need is donating to charity organizations which are doing excellent work in helping people who are victims of disasters in countries around the world, such as, earth quakes, storms, floods, land slides, and more. When I read about the disasters and people suffering, I feel very sorry for them and praise the organizations putting out all the effort to help them.

If there are people out there that need help like friends or family they always seem to come to me rather than anyone else,which is ok but sometimes i think to myself there are other people out there that they socialise with so why dont they go and ask them rather than asking me as there are other people that live closer to them than i do that could help.Perhaps i say yes as i know all the other people will say no to them.

Helping others is the best thing to do. As long as it isn't hurting anyone else, if and when you help someone, not only do you make them feel better but you also feel good or yourself. It's almost like a double win. I read somewhere that if you want to be happy, try to make someone happy. :D

I dont think aobut whether or not helping others will make me better or less...I do it becuase its my nature..because I am compassionate and I care about ppl and I know all too well what its like to need help from another and NOT have anyone there...Its a horrible feeling to say the least and if I can PREVENT anyone else from expierencing that then I will do all I can...
