A Helping Hand!!! Blog 4

This week has been such a busy week for me. Working a full-time job and going to school full-time demands hard work, dedication, and time. Although, I may have a busy schedule, I  still find time to help others who are in need. I get great joy out of helping people, whether its giving a lost out-of-towner directions or moving a friend into a new home. Now, don't get me wrong, there are some people in this world that will take kindness for weakness, but I do not worry about them, because those people do not last long in this world. Earlier this week, I had the privilege of helping some of my classmates who were having trouble with an assignment. I was eager to help because I had prior experience with the task of the assignment. After the session, my classmates offered to take me out to lunch. I declined, because I did not mind helping them. In contrast to my actions, there  are people in this world that will not help anyone, but themselves. For example, there was a family stranded on the side of the road. The weather topped at 100 degrees and I saw cars driving right by them. So, at the next exit, I got off and went to help them. The mother told me that they were stranded for at least an hour and I was the first person to stop and help them. I could not believe that in today's world people will not stop to help a family in need. I helped the family with the car and they wanted to pay me, but again I declined, because my blessings will come from above. I'm a believer in, "when you do good, good things will happen." Christmas should not just be in December, but all year 'round.
