    We must learn to reciprocate in our lives

    Many people take help from others whenever they have some difficulty in their lives. It is normal to do so but they should also understand that if others come to them asking for some help then they should also extend it depending on their capability. Those who take help from others but do not reciprocate it are termed, selfish people. Unfortunately, there are many such people like that in the world who take help from others but do not reciprocate.
    I strongly feel that we should not only reciprocate to all those who help us in times of adversity but help others also who come to us. Reciprocation is not to be confused with repaying. It is not a compulsion but such people are considered good and humanitarian ones.
    What do you think about this? please share your views.

    The author has raised a nice point which could reflect our humanity. Taking help from others in need is not the bad one unless we come forward for their help according to our capacities in their needs. Such stands must be reciprocal and is reflective of our good gestures.
    Now there might be the different cases when the boy of our next neighbour is terminally ill and is need of huge money for his admission in a super speciality hospital.In that case, irrespective of his past records of not helping us should not come in the ways of our helps but we should try our best to help the ailing boy as far as possible. We should not always think of reciprocation as practiced in the normal cases.

    That is correct. When somebody helps us, we should reciprocate when the other person is in a need. There is a saying in Telugu which says that some people expect you to give some gifts to them when they come to your house and also expect you to carry some gifts when you go to their house. That is selfish. These days some people are very selfish and never come forward to help others.
    Today we may be ok and we may not need any help. But we don't know what will happen tomorrow. So when you are in a position to help others, go and do it. Definitely, you will get help from the same person or any other source. God will be observing our actions and definitely send help to us if we really deserve it.
    So all of us should inculcate the habit of helping the needy.

    Reciprocation is the key to sustained long time relationships between the people.
    Knowledge is power.
