Service and Helping Others and Three Reasons People are Hesitant to Help

There are a lot of people who are suffering, and there are very few people who are willing to encourage them even though they know everything about their situation. However, they still do nothing to give them support and show their kindness to them. Therefore, everyone needs inspiration sometimes in their lives. However, most of the time there are a lot of people who are in need of help from others around them, but do not get support for various reasons. In the memoir Hope’s Boy, Andrew Bridge explains he is a child who works through a foster care system who obviously needs a lot of help by those; however, he is ignored by so many people around him.

In addition, I also could see from my own experiences in India sometimes people are afraid of helping others; they might be insulted by those who they are trying to help. The limited resources that prevent Andy’s mother from helping Andy are because of her illness. Andy’s mother would love to take care of Andy, but, she do not have resources to take care of him, the part of the reasons she do not have resources is because she do not have the mental ability to hold the stable job to take care of Andy with the everyday needs.

There are many people who want to help others, but the things that prevent them for not helping others is the less confidence in themselves and the anxiety of getting in trouble. However, we need to provide help to others because helping other people makes us feel better about ourselves emotionally and physically. Therefore, it also helps in emerging the society and constructing it develops in a massive way. Helping others gives a better understanding of other’s society and give us a chance to use our talents, and experience to assist someone who is in needs.
