Charity is related to mindset not with assets

At the present time inflation is striking badly and because of inflation the price of all necessary products has increased multiple X, and it is natural that general people are facing difficulties coping with the situation. We are in such a situation that a middle-class family find it struggling to save some money. In such a situation thinking about giving money to others is quite difficult as we don’t have money for ourselves let alone giving money to others. Do you think that now people have the mindset for charity?

In past times people could save money and they had some spare money through which they could provide help, especially financial help to others. They were allowed to have enough money for charity but now the situation is totally different because those people are already struggling with their own life to cope with the increasing inflation. Right at the moment they don’t have spare money to provide others with help or do charity. Does it mean we should stop helping others or doing charity when we are indeed in tough situation.

At the present time trusting anyone in case of lending them money is quite difficult. At least for me I don’t have no more than 3/4 people whom I can trust fully in case of finance. In fact, I don’t trust them blindly. I just feel those people are worthy enough for me to take the risk and if they don’t return my money, it will be the end for them for my trust as I won’t give anyone the second chance. If they do, in long term I will pull off my supporting hand and I will take back my money whatever it cost as I won’t give anyone my money whom I can’t trace. I will allow them to give them a helping hand as long as they won’t betray by trust and if they do so they will hit the rock bottom for sure as I will make it happen for them.

I believe that as long as we can track those people, we should offer a helping hand, but we also need to be careful we won’t suffer badly for it. It’s true that we can’t help everyone as we have limited capabilities, but we should not change our mentality to help others. As long as we can go on, we should try to offer a helping hand because it’s the thing that makes us truly human. In one case I will make an exception and it’s the time of emergency hospital treatment. I think I will try my best to give as much as possible if anyone asks me for financial help during the time of emergency because I think that life is very important and even more important than my money. There may be a chance of not getting the money anytime, but I feel it’s worth it. At least I feel that I should do it as a human and I should not forget that I am human and humans need help during the time of emergency.

Charity is not dependent on the balance of the account. It depends on the mentality of people. If I have the mentality, I will try to help even if I am facing a difficult situation depending on the need of the situation.
