Tengo unos vecinos que son mis compadres y todos los días sin exagerar me piden algo, desde hielo hasta dinero y la verdad lo hacen por necesidad, son unas personas muy humildes, en ese hogar hay muchos niños y son los que tocan a mi puerta, siempre trato de ayudarles, hay momentos en los que se me hace cuesta arriba y muy a mi pesar no puedo. Durante la pandemia junto a mi esposa apoyamos a muchas personas en la comunidad y aún lo hacemos , hemos puesto a la orden un nebulizador, tensiomentro, oxímetro, incluso hasta un termométro, como la idea es cuidarlos siempre tratamos de que las personas se comprometan a cuidarlos y hasta ahora ha sido así, incluso hemos donado medicamentos.
A big greeting to all, the Holos Lotus community always offers initiatives that promote reflection in all of us who visit it, I was struck by the proposal by the lady
@mosa71 who motivates us to share our experiences around "asking", she commented that asking is an act that can be worthy and that implies kindness and gratitude. I agree with this because asking for something is not bad, there are those who do it out of necessity, it has happened to me, in these circumstances that we live more.
I have some neighbors who are my compadres and every day without exaggeration they ask me for something, from ice to money and the truth is they do it out of necessity, they are very humble people, in that home there are many children and they are the ones who knock on my door, I always try to help them, there are times when it is hard for me and very much to my regret I can not. During the pandemic together with my wife we supported many people in the community and we still do, we have provided a nebulizer, tensiometer, oximeter, even a thermometer, as the idea is to take care of them we always try to get people to commit to take care of them and so far it has been like that, we have even donated medicines.
No somos millonarios ni nada, apenás somos 2 docentes jubilados y mal pagados pero ayudar no cuesta nada y nos gusta hacerlo, tener unos aparatos y no darle uso es peor, al menos nos queda la satisfacción de hacer algo bueno por esas personas a las que vemos diariamente cuando caminamos por la comunidad. De hecho esto nos ha permitido ver que cuando una comunidad se une es mas fuerte.No los donamos al centro de salud porque estamos seguro no durarían. En la semana siempre nos piden personas que les tomemos la tensión arterial o les prestemos algúno de estos aparatos.
He tenido que pedir prestado en muchas ocasiones en mi vida pero he sido responsable y he pagado con sacrificio mis deudas. Cuando le pido a Dios por la salud, trato de cuidarme y no abusar porque entiendo que también debo colaborar para ello. Lo que quiero transmitir con esto es que podemos pedir las cosas pero también tenemos que aprender a dar, la vida requiere que lo hagamos de esa manera, es la dinámica que mueve al mundo pero nos olvidamos de ello muchas veces. Al igual que olvidamos decir "por favor"esto es algo que veo con frecuencia, las personas parecieran acostumbrarse a tomar simplemente lo que quieren o creerse merecedores de las cosas, por ello vemos tantos abusos de confianza.
We are not millionaires or anything, we are just 2 retired and poorly paid teachers but helping doesn't cost anything and we like to do it, having some devices and not using them is worse, at least we have the satisfaction of doing something good for those people we see every day when we walk around the community. In fact this has allowed us to see that when a community is united it is stronger, we don't donate them to the health center because we are sure they wouldn't last. We don't donate them to the health center because we are sure that they would not last.
I have had to borrow many times in my life but I have been responsible and have sacrificially paid my debts. When I ask God for health, I try to take care of myself and not abuse it because I understand that I must also collaborate for it. What I want to transmit with this is that we can ask for things but we also have to learn to give, life requires that we do it that way, it is the dynamic that moves the world but we forget it many times. Just as we forget to say "please" this is something I see often, people seem to get used to just take what they want or think they deserve things, that is why we see so many abuses of trust.
Cuando pedimos algo con respeto le aseguro las puertas se abrirán porque nada mas bonito que hacerlo de esta manera. En el mundo vemos con preocupación cada vez mas mendigos en la calle y esto motivado a la crisis económica mundial, muchos han caido en esto debido a las drogas y el alcohol, son rechazados por la sociedad porque ese estado los ha llevado a agreder a otros. Cada día el pedir se ha convertido en el pan nuestro, en ese grito de ayuda que aunque algunas veces puede resultar incomodo y molesto, pueden llegar a ser una prueba de que tanto estás dispuesto(a) a luchar contra el egoismo, la avaricia y la maldad.Gracias por tu atención, hasta un próximo encuentro.
When we ask for something with respect I assure you the doors will open because there is nothing nicer than doing it this way. In the world we see with concern more and more beggars on the street and this motivated by the global economic crisis, many have fallen into this because of drugs and alcohol, they are rejected by society because that state has led them to assault others. Every day begging has become our bread and butter, a cry for help that although sometimes may be uncomfortable and annoying, can become a test of how much you are willing to fight against selfishness, greed and evil.Thank you for your attention, until our next meeting.
