Helping.



                       We  have  been  told  how  we  are  in  a  state  of
               interdependency with all living things. This interdependency is

               what we call on in our time of need. Help is always at hand and
               we should always be there to help.
                       It is how we help and how we seek the help to be that

               we  must  better  understand.  We  are  often  misguided  in  this

               guilty for having more than they do? Do you feel obliged  to
               give? Is this motivation based on what others might see you

               do?  Above  all  else  is  your  giving  going  to  really  help  this
               person? It is important that you understand the nature of your
               giving. As a thoughtless giver you could be contributing to the

               pain and suffering of many. Lets go back to this beggar. Are
               they looking for money or are they looking for help in other
               ways? In the case of looking for money you need to be sure
