Most People Like Helping

Here’s Something to Feel Good About Today… April 24, 2009

I’ve always been pretty independent and never like to ask anyone for anything unless I feel I can’t do it myself.  When someone does a favor for me, my inner response is usually “I need to do something to return the favor as soon as possible.”

When I think about it, if someone asks a favor of me, I like to help them if I can, if I can’t, I always have the option to tell them so. I’ve come to realize I’m not much different than anyone else. Most people like to help when asked. In fact there’s a tremendous satisfaction in giving someone what they need.

For today if there is something you need, are you willing to take the risk and ask? Allowing the other person to give to you may be just what they need too.
