It makes me sad whenever I hear stories of people who are undergoing some personal problems and those who are sick and suffering. I know I also have my own pains and struggle but seeing others suffer also adds to my miseries. I know its not right to feel burdened by others' burden but it makes me feel better whenever I hear stories of people who are going through a happier life. On this note, I am always trying my best to pray for those who are struggling because by doing that, I can also ease my own.

Sometimes we share our problems here, because it's a place where to find comfort. Of course I prefer to read happy discussions.

It's depressing but we don't have to be depressed for them. We need to give them strength because they have none anymore.

Exactly! A positive vibe is contagious. It can overcome its opponent if we just remain positive.

That is right. That is the least thing we can do for those who need it.

There is always someone worse off then we are and that is something to think about. We all have some pains and struggles in our life.

Yes we do. So it still helps when we give our prayers to those who need it.

Indeed , all we can offer is our fervent prayers for those acquaintances we want to help yet we don't have the capacity to give . It gives us a nice feeling when we always do that .

Prayer is the best thing we can do for people, so it should be our "go-to" response, even as we help them physically. I know the prayers of many just helped me through my mother's last days. I could feel the prayers holding me up.
