NISHA...PUTTI
Why would you want to change your personality of helping others out ?? Yes..there are ungrateful people around us who think it is their right and prerogative to take advantage of you...
But that should not be a deterrent and change you...STAY THE WAY YOU ARE !!!
Never stop reaching out...for every 1 ungrateful person, there will be 100 who will genuinely appreciate your help !!
I knit and crochet stuff thru the year. Obviously with Pune not being so cold, I give away as I finish any piece...I made 2 baby blankets for my friend's grandkids who had come from Toronto sometime back.
The DIL had such a viper's tongue and said why would you bother to make such stuff ( as I gave it to her ) ...we get a lot in Toronto...and this is when I have people constantly asking me to make layettes and stuff.
For once I had the presence of mind to tell her " give it away on charity...I do that all the time" 😊 And I decided that day, that the minute the stuff leaves my hand, I stop having any expectation. Even if she throws it in the dustbin, Iam not going to feel bad 😃.
I wont make anything for her for sure, but am not going to change, nor stop reaching out, because this is me and Iam happy the way Iam !!
The world is what it is, but if we are happy the way we are, we make no changes or compromises 😊
What says ???
