Helping hands are better than praying lips


HELPING HANDS ARE BETTER THAN PRAYING LIPS

A genuine request to all my friends ...


               Anybody who sees someone wanting help – somebody who’s dying on the road, please do not just pass by looking at him/ her, but offer your timely support and help the person in need so that he gets his life back – make him out of danger by providing first aid. The value of another person’s life cant definitely be equated to anything else except for the fact that it involves risking one’s own life/ safety. Being late to office by an hour or to a function or anything else is always acceptable than not attending to a person who needs some support of this kind on the road.

              I’m triggered and sharing this message because I saw a man suffering from FITS/ seizure on the roads of JP Nagar (a very busy area during the peak hours). I being in the auto rickshaw on the other side of the road was trying to cross the road with the rick driver and make our way to help him. We could see many just passing by him but ignored/ avoided. But then, two other men offered him help and gave him first aid. The two men dressed not so decent ... looked not so educated were the ones who knew about the value of someone else’s life. I understand, one main reason for not offering help could be because of the rising crimes in India – trying to help but then you could be risking your own life and safety – but at least in such heavy traffic roads during peak hours I guess nobody will take a chance of harming/ cheating you.

              This is not to blame anybody. I know most of us are concerned but let’s display it at the right time. I am sharing this message just to create an awareness and request people to show humanity to the ones who need help but dying on the roads due to lack of first aid every other day.
Please do not hesitate to help – 

   
   You may have the opportunity of gifting somebody his/ her own life and please do take care of yourself too.
