Do You Continue to Help Others That Keep Doing the Same Things Over and Over Again
Helping Others Can Change The World
The human race is a funny thing. Instead of being at odds with each other, if we were to be good to each other the world could be a very different place
Who are the others?
Others, the people we encounter in life who aren't close friends or family. The nameless people who we cross paths with whilst we are on our own journey. Have you ever looked out of a car window on a long journey and wondered what lives the people you see have lead?
Be good to those you meet for you don't know what battles they are fighting
Every person that you come across has lived their life up until that point. They have been through sadness and joy in a similar way that you have. Treat others with the respect that they deserve, no matter what situation you encounter them. Understand that every person has the same thoughts, feelings and emotions that you do.
How helping others can change the world and 30 ways to help others below.
"If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion."

Gives us a sense of purpose
Brings us love and happiness

Helping Others To Change The World
Showing compassion, empathy and helping others can change the world for the better. If everyone were to help each other and treat each other with respect the world would be a very different place.
Being nice to others creates a chain reaction where people are motivated to do good for others when someone does good for them.
We are all human beings and more than capable of looking after each other. Be kind & help others. Be the change and make the world a better place
"No one is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of another."
