I was traveling by a bus. At one stop my co passenger was to get down. He was getting delayed because of collecting his baggage which was a much. So the other passengers in the bus got annoyed and started talking to him to be early. That person jumbled and so disturbed. I have helped him a lot in unloading his belongings.Actually we should help others at this juncture. Tomorrow you can also be in this position and then what would you do? Just think.

I do not want to brag, but I do extend help to whoever needs it even if it was a stranger. I feel so happy being able to help. There was one time that an old lady rode on the same jeepney I was riding. I felt that she just had enough money in her pocket and I was thinking that she might not have enough to buy her food. So what I did was, I offered paying her fare. It wasn't that much, but I guess it meant to her big time coz not everybody would be doing the same thing.

Hi roshigo!
I admire you for setting a good exampleto others. I'm sure others who are there watching you are already thinking about their acts on that particular situation. Keep it up, friend!

Yes, I know some people can be very selfish and can only think of themselves and their needs, not those of the others!

Hi friend, good to hear about your activity and i admire you for your work. As you mentioned others blamed him for his delayed activity, if they come forward to help him, surely he unloaded his things quickly. the fault is not from his side, it is from the persons whoever blamed him. Surely i will help the person if i am in your position

I so much agree with you. We don't know when will we be needing help from others too that's why let's help others even in simple ways.

That is wonderful that you were willing to help the other passenger on the bus. There is an old saying; Walk a mile in another person's shoes before you judge them. We can very easily be a person who may need the help. I hope this person continues to receive help when needed and that someday, when you need help, someone will return you the favor that you gave to that bus passenger. Many Blessings to you.

Oh, I hope instead of mumbling out they should've helped the passenger to unload his baggages. They were so mean and lazy to help. It's good you've helped him. It's nice to extend help to needy people. We feel proud of ourselves. Keep up the good work! Happy mylotting.

I always ready to help others many time when I travel by train some aged women travel alone and her luggage is more then I pick their laggege when they reach their station. I like to help others for sitting also immediately gives the sit for seating and then start talking or conversation and enjoy the journey.

I have also been in a position to help people at the most unpredicted
times..I really have a big heart and I will do what ever I can to help
other..not so much for myself but I have grandsons that are going up
in this big ole world...I hope that one day if they ever need a helping
hand at any given time,that there would be someone out there to come to
their assistance...
I do believe what comes around, goes around...this earth is not flat.
you don't go to the end and then fall off,,you come right back around
to pass those same people again...they may be doing bette and they may
be doing worst...but are you willing to take that chance by mistreating
someone or not helping someone and you could have help????

Some people are just inconsiderate. They are good in complaining and never put themselves in other people's shoes. Soon when they'll be needing the same help and consideration, they won't get one.

Yes you done right
Instead talking about him they could have helped too and it would be much faster

yes, we are supposed to extend a helping hand whenever there is a need. instead of getting annoyed, why not help others to get on or off the bus? indeed at times it is quite difficult to understand other people's behaviors. they always want the world and circumstances to be in their way.

Hi,
I agree we can see this happening in the buses. I have seen few cases actually people instead of getting annoyed could help them to get the luggage out in this way in this way we can help others as well as save the time but they act complete opposite.
They just talk rubbish by sitting in the seat.You did the right thing by helping the person.

I agree, it makes more sense to help someone especially if you can see they are struggling as in the example you have given above. It makes more sense to help than to sit there and grumble about the man taking so long, which doesn't do anyone any bit of good, and gets everyone in a sour mood. I help when I can, with what I can. It's great to be of help to other people, because as you say..what would happen if the roles were reversed, or you were in a similar situation? Wouldn't anyone want help? I believe it's titled "caring for others."

Great you help him rather than got annoyed and complain. If that passenger help him so he can get out of the bus fast instead of complaining. We don't know, maybe tomorrow we will be on his situation so it's better to help other if its needed. I help anyone in need if I can.
