Saying Thank you...or NOT...


We are often encouraged to help others when they have come to you for assistance. Even better if your initiation to help (anyone) is not derived from their request, meaning it was initiated solely out of your own wish and self intended drive to extend a hand. 


However, if ever in such a scenario, kindly be advised that you execute your angelic virtues without any expectation for return of gratitude. 
..WHY?


Well, I think because you will more often than not be disappointed when you expect appreciation from mortals. 
They just don't do that anymore these days. Its sad really but this is the unfortunate situation of present day human values. 


So...in order to protect our fragile hearts just go one along with attending your good intentions without any expectations from mortal gratitude. Just leave the rewards from the DIVINENESS. HE will fix your pay back. After all, believe me, it is a much sweeter feeling of satisfaction when you do it this way....do it for no mortal gratitude.Simply roll out your effort of assistance out of sheer sincerity of the heart.


We are often troubled by the present society's lack of manners in dispersing gratitude. Sadly, most of them take it for granted that it is their right. They often walk away without feeling of guilt of this snobbish behaviour.


I often wonder why is it so difficult for some people to even utter a two syllable expression..."THANK YOU"
If two is too much, then that same expression can be conveyed with just ONE syllable...."THANKS!"


Some often simply make it a lip service with no soul behind the utterance....its as dry a a granola without milk!




For this reason, one should never expect it when rolling out efforts for other...just let it be...if they say it, good for them, if they don't say it...don't let it eat you up! Its not your lost, infact you gain more from the DIVINE rewards for your effort and you gain also for the "feel-good" factor to help other.


Having said this....on our part...DONT be like them...DO say your thanks when you are rendered any kindly assistance because to be thankful is to be THANKFUL and GRATEFUL to HIM.


ALLAH BLESS US ALL!
