It is always good to be a helping hands to others especially when their in need of any assistance or help just to support or solve their problem when it occurs with such person seeking for your assistance or you willing to help just to make them happy.
The act of rendering such help to strangers we barely know differs because we leave in a world where we hardly trust people we don't Know especially when they walk up to you for any assistance.
In such cases it might be different if the strangers request is something we can do at that particular time if it involves financial issue to transport, such request can be over looked and you can render such assistance if your in position to assist at that moment.
But such act now can make one develop trust issues especially in Africa because such people have turn it to business which is what we call "cooperate beggers" in the act of collecting money indirectly from people and can really make people to reduce their ways of rendering help to such people.
Helping strangers have really develop the act of fear because the trust is no longer there due to what is happening around the world which has eradicate the act of trust.
However, their are scenario whereby may not involve the financial aspect but to render such help may put doubt in people's mind especially if is to accommodate someone you don't know due to the story such person has laid down just for you to accept him or her for a while, in such cases you may want to but because of trust can make you say no because some people use it as an advantage to get through someone.
Though there's a saying that says ''love your neighbour as you love yourself" because nobody knows tomorrow the most important thing is to always do good to your fellow human because what goes around comes around.
I Know a story of a guy that rendered help to a lady on the street just because she was feeling weak and dizzy and can't be able to walk and this particular guy was inside car but noticed the sudden change of the young lady and he quickly rushed to her so as to assist her since she was feeling unconscious. The guy rushed the lady to the hospital so as to save her life despite not knowing her from anywhere but eventually the lady died in his car before he got to the hospital.
Despite the guy trying to render assistance to the poor girl he was accused of been involve in the girl's death since it was inside his car she died.
The case almost got him to jail if not for eye witness that noticed the scene and also evidence that she was depressed due to personal reasons saved him from the mess.
So helping others not only strangers can go a long way but am not saying we shouldn't render help if we see one that is genuine with right resources, but we should always be careful because it's dangerous out there.
There are good people out there who needs help not because they want to be in that situation but it is because they can't do it alone and they need help and assistance from other people.
