On Giving

Giving is part of everyday life. Some people give without being told and some give with hesitancy. People believe it is the same wether you have been told or not, but in the big picture it makes a big difference. It says "those who give with joy, and that joy is their reward. And there are those who give with pain, and that pain is their baptism". Giving isn't going to have the same feeling of satisfaction if you aren't happy with what you have done. Every person is deserving of something, and to not give because you believe that they don't need to be helped is selfish. In the Judaism we have mitzvah, and you normally know that it is the right thing to do, and give without being told. You feel such a sense of empowerment by helping others wether they are in need or not.
