Yes. I know the title won’t get you an ‘A’ in your kindergarden English test. But it at least got your attention, didn’t it?

Have you been down and out lately? Go help pull someone up. It’s impossible for you to stay down for too long when you’re helping to lift someone up. To take it one step further, what about helping someone whom can’t help you back? And to take it even much further, what about helping someone you simply loathe and don’t tell him/her about it? And what about helping till it hurts?!

Although I enjoy helping people, I haven’t reached the stage of helping people I dislike. I’m no saint, y’know. Maybe one day I will. Maybe one day I’ll be forced to. Maybe….

Can you imagine what the world will turn into when everybody is trying to help somebody? The rich helping the poor; and the poor helping the rich. The blessed for the unfortunate; and the unfortunate for the blessed. Regardless of our situation and condition, we all can help. It’s not really a matter of our ability. It’s a matter of our willingness. Helping doesn’t even have to be something tangible. A smile. A prayer. A word of encouragement.

Be imaginative.

Be creative.

You’ll be amazed how your willingness to help others will cause you to be both the above!
