Greetings ladies . Hope we are in good health enjoying wellness ❤️🥰. Am so happy joining in this week’s ladies of hive contest as presented to us by our dear @priyanarc

And here I will be taken my question from no
3️⃣ How do you create balance between giving to others and prioritizing your own needs?.

I feel we should be grateful any time we have the opportunity to provide and give to others, understanding that its not that we have more but that we are privileged to have and extend to others.

Having emotion and feelings for others is something that comes from within which I feel is the best part of life and living because we are in a world 🌎 where all humans are not equal. And considering how ironic life is, many see life as a beautiful thing while many who are on the tough side see it as a world filled with suffering and torment.

Giving to others is what we do sometimes to save ourselves from being sad because I feel that when we help out our beloved ones, either families, friends and even our neighbors , we are making them happy and at the sane time making ourselves happy by taking away some burdens off their shoulders although its taking something away from us, but our mind will be at ease.

Magnitude Of The Need:

Despite having the heart ♥️ to help others, I feel there should be limits to helping others and this is where our well-being and prioritizing our needs before others comes in. When the need of others are huge and we see that it’s something we can not handle, we don’t have to take it upon ourselves to want to promise helping out because this might affect our income and expenditures, so we have to present ourselves first. So here I will only support the person in any way I could.

Manipulation:

There are so many people who feels that they can manipulate others through collecting from them, forgetting that people who help others do it from their heart and not that their not smart. Many relations will even feel you are obligated to help them any time they ask for help. But life does not work this way. Every cheerful give knows when to stop giving. And I will not allow any one to manipulate me when I have my own needs and bills to pay 💰. If I have helped you severely, then I need to prioritize my self here there by balancing the help am giving to others as we need to be smart with people.

Squanders:

I have a brother who is generous in giving and helping others, Then there is young cuisine of mine who he decided to help. And asking him willingly what he wants to do, he said he wants to travel 🧳 out if the country. But my brother advised him on how traveling to other countries is not an easy process but the young guy said he has s genuine contact, that all he needed is money 💰. So my brother decided to give him half of the amount of 2,000,000 and that when every documents are ready he will pay 💰 up the balance. But it never was as expected. First month, second month, and it turned out the man the young guy trusted has squandered the cash and was telling stories. And this young cuisine has missed his chance by not using it very well.

These are indeed how life is. We should not hope on others and make mistakes that will cost 💲 us opportunities because everyone has their own needs they will consider first when the table turns. I will not involve myself in helping others that will cost 💲 me sadnesses and bring stress to my well -being because I will first consider my happiness when it comes to sone certain helps to others , by doing this, I will be balancing how I prioritize my own needs too.

In conclusion, the most important of all is we should also know that needs are a constant factor in human life and must continue to arise. And that there is no way we can satisfy everyone that wants help from us, even if it’s from family or friends. We can only give our best while also considering and prioritizing ourselves first.
