Today I had the great opportunity to go to my sister's birthday party. She is 23 now and still just as compassionate as she was ten years ago. My sister is one of the most forgiving, loving, and caring people I know. She often shares her belongings and never has a problem giving what she has to make other people happy. Because of her example I have done my best to be the same way she is. I have always admired people like her because they show so much selflessness. One thing she does is she does not question why a person might need help, she just helps them when she sees a need. As I have specifically been applying this trait I have noticed that I tend to stop judging people so quickly because I don't worry about the small and unimportant details. The point is to help, not to judge whether or not they actually do need help because whether they "need" it or not it is always nice to have a companion. So, I will keep applying this trait I have learned from my wonderful sister in hopes to become more charitable as she is.

That's such a great thing that you look up to your sister. We all need to more often not question why someone needs help and just help them with whatever it is that they seem to need. That's such an admirable trait! Thanks for your thoughts on this.
ReplyDeleteI love this! We all have so many amazing people in our lives that we can learn from. It's great that your sister is one of them. I think the desire to be a good example is contagious. As we gain more role models in our life, we begin to want to have the same effect on people. So hopefully, we become role models ourselves!
ReplyDeleteI love charity. I think the happiest people are the most charitable people. I tend to be too self-centered sometimes. At times I force myself to stop, look at someone else, and try to see in what way I can help them. I'll do that tomorrow. Thanks for the great post.
