“A Reference To Heal Is To Help”

In the words of Dr. David Hamilton, the author of the book Why Kindness is Good for You, "When you do
something for someone else, your brain produces hormones Dopamine - which makes you feel happy and gives you the
feeling that what you are doing is right."

My essay's topic is charity, defined as lending a helping hand to people in need. Every one of us can sometimes
encounter challenges in the world, and in order to overcome them and go forward, we must support one another. I got
to the realization that we could change if we wanted to as I was exposed to the truth of what is really happening in
humankind based on what I am completely seeing on social media. It sickens me to see the hopelessness in the eyes of
those who are suffering from hunger, poverty, and a lack of healthcare and educational support.

As you can see, the word "CHARITY" is clearly shown in the first image, and I truly believe that we can live up to
that pledge by being kind and respectfully helpful to everyone.

Giving someone money is not the only way to help them; we can also donate them with other basics like food,
clothing, and other items that are in good condition. Just keep in mind that it came from your heart.

Last but not least, I think helping one another could make a big difference in other people's lives. We can change
things and make a difference as a result. As the art and spirit of generosity are one of the most amazing things life can
offer us, we can heal by helping others.
