Hello my family. How are you people? I hope you are well by the grace of Almighty who created the entire universe. I have no idea how you are dealing with your problems but I pray that you will be able to find a way to solve those problems or someone may help in your matter. Getting help from others is a very difficult things nowadays. People see advantage in everything and work according it. The true passion of helping others are decreasing day by day. But the earth is still green and the plants are still giving us oxygen. That means there are still kind hearted person who seek nothing in return. Otherwise it will be the doomsday. So here we are, talking about life, people & helping hands, your host, the desired Devil says, let's dive in to know more.

Topic: Helping them who needs it more

From the beginning of human civilizations, we needed help because they couldn’t do anything by their own. Still they are dealing with the same problems. In this modern era, the problems raised more. We still need help but the process changed. In past, we help needy people, the people who really wanted that help but now we help those people from whom we can get any benefits. Now we help those people who can solve one of our puzzled equation. We are actually helping them to get helped. Is this actual help or a bait? I think bait because we are expecting return policy from it. This is not the help but a pure gambling. And this types of gambling will not bring any benefits to the society. The whole system will be corrupted. Already we are witnessing it, don't we?

This makes me feel upset. We are helping people for their own needs but not for us. We click selfies while helping others. Then we post them in our social media. For getting more views and likes we are ready to disrespect those people by publishing their face in front of the millions. They need help but not disrespectful acts from us. Isn’t that injustice?

Let me clear the cloud now. What will be the better option for us? Well my friend, there are plenty people around us who need help. Middle class families are one of them. They have two ways problematic sections. They can't beg or can't ask for help. They remain silent. If you truly want to help, just help them. Where many people are already helping others, you should help the single one who needs help but doesn’t know the process. Don't be a star in the sky, be a candle in the dark. This line will change your life if you truly understand the meaning of it. Stars are millions in number. So it doesn’t matter if a star is newly added to the already sparkling sky. But a candle has enough power to enlighten the darkness. Alone but enough. Be the candle my friend. Find the needy one and silently help them. Do not think about recognition. You don’t need that if you are truly doing it for mankind. The Almighty will count your name in the list of blessed people. That would be awesome.

The world need super heroes as per we see in the movies. But for me, anyone can be the super hero. Your kind gesture and helping hands, even a smile to assure someone that you are there for that person will make you a worthy guy. Don't rush towards the fame which can be earned by show off cases. You are born to be legend. Show the world that you are not here to join those showoff people. You are here to hold someone's hand in need. You are here to feed the person who needs. You are here to uprise your legacy that you are alone enough to help people and bring smile. Be the candle my friend, not the star.

This is all a Truth @Lucifer01 as so many people focus on the problem than the cause. Charity is good but the people we give could be better brought out if that position at once, rather than revisiting them and claim to be helpful.

It's all about intentions. To some extent, actions matter very little but intentions! they are everything. Even if you do good things with selfish intentions, you haven't done a, single good thing.

This is very good and very true. Rather than be one of many, or distant and out of touch, strive to be a clear and present light to those you can immediately reach. II like the fact that you point out that you should help someone simply because you can and want to without waiting for someone to cry out to you or without being disrespectful in the support you provide. Sometimes it's tough, depending on where you are in life, to solicit support, and so, because you never know where someone is, it is always good to be kind, to be a candle. Great piece, and thanks.

Gosh I'm to absorbed on reading this one, the be a candle in the dark thingy gives me chill, like wr need to be the light even the stars are gone in the sky, be the candle light when the stars doesnt showed up in the darkness time. Be a helping hand to everyone even there's nothing to benefit when helping them.

This made me remember a teaching I heard from an old man, he said, we should help people without expecting anything in return, and how do you know a wealthy man, its not by the amount of wealth he possess, but the amount of life he can touch. Others are in the dark, you can't be the only candle, try to give some people fire from your candle so the room can be brighter..

I Do help People but I don't take selfies with them whenever I help, I make sure that only he and me knows about it, besides, there is God that sees all things that we do.

I have taken it from the Bible that when you pray, hide in your closet, I never wanted to be a hypcrite

Helping those who really needs without the eyes of many is so satisfying.. they may not see it around the world about your simple good deed to your fellow but He see it always.. God never sleeps, He's not blind and I know for sure..one day ..it may not be a fame but it will overflow with blessings.

I get the meaning of the post but that's a poor comparision... Stars have helped humans since the time of stone age (millions of years before candle was invented) to understand and navigate the path they are taking by lighting up the sky, especially for the Sailors in later coming centuries... They literally wrote scientific concepts and invented creations based on Star patterns.. If there are no stars, it is down right impossible for the earth to survive and this planetary system will be a joke.. you know what star I'm talking about right? yes, The Sun..

Trust me when I say this, Stars have shown more light to people than Candles ever could be :))) .. Your post has a deep sense of meaning and it is amazing, but taking stars as Metaphor was wrong.. Sorry if I have offended you
