When people feel good and secure about themselves, they are more likely to help others who are in need. Some people say that when they volunteer or help they are more immune to stress. Many recent studies have proven that when we help not thinking of ourselves, we get healthier our immune system is boosted, that means that we won't get colds, headaches or insomnia that often.

We also have longer life and are happier. One of the wisest words in the world that i have ever heard were "give and it shall be given on to you". Driving a friend to his job, cutting your elderly neighbor's grass or even helping someone who needs money for the rent, all these things will make you feel good about yourself.

Studies have shown that helpful behavior triggers good feeling chemicals like endorphins into the bloodstream, all these chemicals create a feeling of youth and vitality. Everyone can always use help at some point, and it is a good idea to support people that needed. It is true that we often help our family or even our friends but that's just because you have known them for a long time.

There is no reason to limit our support to those we know, when we help out people we don't know we are breaking the barriers that we construct between us and them. So start to become aware of acts of kindness so that when you come across someone that needs your assistance for example if someone needs directions, asks for money to buy food, or even if they ask you for the time remember the words "give and it shall be given unto you".
