The oldest adages known to mankind promote giving. Both the Golden Rule: “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you” and the Christian Bible: “It is more blessed to give than receive” tell us that giving can be one of the most rewarding experiences in life. However, in today’s society, those sentiments all too often get shoved aside to pave the way for personal ambition, financial success, instant gratification, and other very self rewarding behaviors we’ve learned. It’s all dog-eat-dog and “me first”.
This is certainly understandable; we are inherently “wired” to hang on, to keep on going, to try harder — even when the “going” gets tough, as they say. Over time, humanity hasn’t really changed that much: a person’s most basic, primal instinct is self-preservation and self-protection. But, euphemisms aside, here’s a secret, and it’s very, very simple: When you show appreciation for others and give of yourself, you will reap innumerable pleasurable benefits — for yourself, of course — but more, much more importantly, for the other person or people we’re affecting. Why? Here’s another easy answer: Our second most basic instinct is simply this: to help others.
