Acknowledging A Core Philanthropist @elkezaksek

Thank you very much!
It was already easy for me as a child to help others or to share things.
I have also always protected the weak.
It is easy for me, I do not have to make an effort for it.
Many people tell me that they would also like to help, but do not have the financial means to do so.
I think this thought process is wrong, because you don't necessarily need money for that.
Each of us knows people who need help.
There is the neighbor who is alone and sick and who would appreciate company, or someone to help her/him with the groceries.
There are people who have just suffered a loss and would appreciate assistance.
For some, all that helps is a sympathetic ear,
a nice conversation, a cup of coffee together and the problems are forgotten for a moment.
There are countless examples and situations in which you can give your counterpart a good feeling and bring a smile to his face.
Everyone can do this and it doesn't cost any money!

So, dear people out there:
be nice to each other and have fun!

Wow, I don't have any excuse for what soever reason not help, now I understand better if really, one wants to help there are diverse Ways to go about it not necessarily money. I understand people are naturally born that way even though we can still cultivate such habit of generosity but some incident are extreme and perculiar your's is not an exception. You reach out to people you have never met or had any experience with but yet you extend your act of charity to them with so much passion. It's something I only heard from far, this is my first time of witness to such. I believe it's by the grace of His to have such a generous heart and the world would have been a better place with such people. Thank you

Giving makes happy!

I have seen a lot of poverty in my life and very often I stood next to it and could not do much because I lacked the possibilities.
We have the opportunity in Uganda to improve the lives of the people there very much.
For us in Germany it is a matter of course to have water and electricity in the house.
Also we have enough to eat and if we have difficulties, there are places or people who help us.
Also our health system is one of the best in the world.

So I was very lucky to be born in such a country.
I give (gladly) a piece of my luck...

There she goes again . Over time I have learnt that the nicest of people who are generous and humble are not the ones with the so much , but with the so much of the heart to give . With them , money isn’t the parameter to offer assistance but money only adds up . With such a mentality then giving become simple . It could be your time , or listening ear , or a glass of coffee or a cheerful smile with the add on , it’s gonna be well , just as she has rightly pointed out . I know one day we shall surely have an international meet up to day to her , bravo 👏 well done , God bless you , you have always inspired me and many more compliments; only then , shall we satisfactorily say we have given her the accolades she deserves.
Cheers

Thanks for always inspiring me and people around . Let the message be amplified !!!
