Why giving back is important ?

Three things in human life are important: the first is to be kind; the second is to be kind; and the third is to be kind.” ”• Henry James
It feels good to give. Sure, giving back should be an altruistic, selfless notion, but the truth is that giving back is good for both the giver and the recipient. Studies even prove that there are amazing benefits to giving, whether you are taking on a regular volunteer position, donating money, or simply doing a random act of kindness.


Giving back is important to me. Growing up with a society facing hundreds and thousands of problem. Now I want society to realize the importance of being kind and not blaming others for all the problems, when they have the ability to change it. Volunteering may not just be good for the recipient of your time and kindness, but it may be good for your own health too. Researchers found a 20% increase in mortality among volunteers compared to non-volunteers.

Children who make an effort to perform acts of kindness report being happier and feeling more accepted by their peers. Being kind to others can have a cyclical effect in that those who are kind are less likely to be bullies, and those who are kind (and therefore more accepted) are less likely to be bullied. So let's be a good example for the next generation and teach them ways to be kind to others.

If we, knowing all the facts and importance of kindness, still waiting for others to groom and uplift our society then we are living in the world of fantasies. Pakistan is not just a country rather it is a land of struggles, we need to keep our spirits high in order to keep our country progressive in a right direction and that is only possible if we take a step to render our service towards our community
