Lending Helping Hands

It's hard to trust now days. In times of dire need I think people in my community are very giving and kind. I have seen stories on the news about such things. We have churches on every corner it seems like. A blissful act of grace it is. Makes a person feel good to help another person in need.

Indeed in this busy world, where everybody seemed to be on the internet, or playing games in their gadgets etc. it seems that helping a fellowmen becomes a disturbance to others. Though, i noticed that even when you are in FB you can also help by liking a site that needs your like to be able to raise money for a cause. That's because nowadays, it is known that many people are always in FB, or the internet. So, they make a way to ask help through the net too.

I live in a Sr. Citizen building where just about everyone is way older than I am. My next door neighbor frequently needs help getting in and out of her apartment because she uses a walker. Whenever I am in the hallway and see her I help her with her door and keys. It makes me feel good to help others who aren't as fortunate as I am.

I believe in 'a friend in need is a friend indeed' and 'a relative is true relative if he really helps you when you need it'; the help may not be monetary though. In 1986, i broke my hipbone was in bed wearing plaster cast from chest to toe for 2+ months and was in bed for very long time gradually my relatives and friends stopped visiting me, lest i may ask for money we live in a selfish world my friend.
