Undoubtedly, helping the
people who do not know plays a significant role in people’s daily lives in many
of the places where they work or play. Some people think that nowadays people
are more willing to help the people who do not know than they were in the past,
while others do not. Both sides may have their own reasons to support their
views. If I were asked to choose one, I would say that today’s people are more
willing to help the people who do not know than they were in the past.
To begin with, when people are
willing to help the people who do not know, it can improve the increase in
their overall happiness. Compared to the past, it gives them a chance to devote
themselves to their community and thus they feel fulfilled and rewarded. A fulfilling
and rewarded experience is likely to prevent them from feeling of meaningless.
For example, when my youngest sister was in high school, she often felt
depressed thinking that her life became an exhausting life. To survive in a
competitive world, she spent the whole day studying all academic subjects,
hoping that she could outdo others. Although she made constant effort, it was
not easy because everyone was working as hard as she was. Fortunately, she was
able to make her life more meaningful by volunteering help other the poor.
However, our parents did not understand her solution which is helping other
people who do not know because our parents had not ever experienced fulfilled and
rewarded life. The reason was that our parents did always work hardly and they did
not have enough time to take care about other people, which led to hard to
experience achieving life. However, when my youngest sister helped other people
to improve the poor people’s lives, she was able to find her fulfilled and
rewarded life. Also, she was able to see positive results she contributed. Many
people around her started to respect her, allowing her to be strong,
optimistic, and confident. Without this experience, she would have been lived
meaningless life.
All in all, the importance of helping the people who do
not know, which today is regarded as more than the past cannot be overestimated
in life. |
