Hi friends, Yesterday I was feeling very guilty. I saw a middle aged person near our office standing with a box on his hand. There was a quote written in it..' Donation for my girl' s education'. I saw him . He was a middle aged person with grey hair and there was a walking stick .. he walked with limp. I felt once that I should help and give some money but at the same time my consious mind asked me the question" is it real? The man seems healthy and he could have work worked? instead of asking for donations". He was not saying anything just standing in the sun with the box . So I decided that I should not give him any money and I went inside my office. But don't know why since yesterday I am having a sense of guilty. I am feeling what if that person was really in need of that money. What you think friend what should I have done? Was I really incorrect by not giving the money? Your responses are most welcome. Might be your views help me to be normal or can give any suggestions as how to overcome this guilt feeling.

I think you should have, because there might be a specific reason like he might be not getting a job , your guilt is a sign that you are good at heart but that time you listened to your mind

I agree Sameera. No idea why I heard my mind and not my heart. But the problem is that how can I rectify that. I am really worried and the guilty sense is really bad :-(

I might have done the same as you. But i also like to try seeing the good in people. And hope money who ask for money really do need it. Although i know its not always true.
