Glass Half Full !!!! Hurricane Harvey bringing out the best in Americans.

in #life7 years ago

People are helping people.   

People aren't helping because of someones membership in a group, by race, sex, religion, skin color, country of origin, ethnicity, political leaning, etc.   

They are helping other people because it is the right thing to do.

Please upvote and resteem if you understand and appreciate the positive spirit of people helping people in time of crisis.  

Let's send a positive STEEMIT message of support to everyone that has been impacted by Hurricane Harvey.

It brought tears to my eyes :/ but humanity is being served right . We should always help one another , guide one another . This is not just in time of need , but all times .

How people behave in time of crisis is one measure of true character.

Houston, Texans, and Americans are showing strong character and resolve as Harvey slowly winds down.

That is very true ! If we do not help in crisis , then what is humanity left with ?

This just proves that the media cannot distort or hide the true American character. America is still great!

Always has been, and will be again. Media likes to gin up red versus blue divide. But on 80% of more of all topics, Americans show GREAT common sense and their political position is solid center

Helping others brings good feelings to the giver and the receiver of the good deeds. Using your special gifts to help others can be a gift to yourself as you enjoy a self esteem boost for making others' lives better, and make the world a better place. You feel more worthy of good deeds yourself, your trust in the decency of people is reinforced, and you feel more connected to yourself and to others.

Better to give than receive, applies at more than just Christmas

All right, "it is more blessed to give than to receive"

Hopefully some can put politics aside. That would be nice.

We'll be back to politics as usual in a couple more days. It was Trump's fault. It was the Democratic mayor of Houston fault. etc.

But for a couple of days, that noxious political environment will be tamer than normal

I know they will fight through it. Everything will go back to normal. Might just take a while.

They look comfortable helping each other. That is the spirit. It is just the strength to bear their loss they need

God bless America!!!

God be with them. Poor people.

They'll survive, they'll overcome. Texans are tough

Yes, I know. They will survive. In every way there will be many affected. So much effort as to lose their little things.

I feel for these people. God have mercy. I wish i can help.

It is always the rite thing to do. Assist anybody that needs help

I have no words for this. I'm praying for a stop to the rains and hope and for all suffering and losing everything.

This is the true nature of Americans! MSM try to destroy it, but in the end the reality will prevail

Why is that oppressive patriarchal White Man manhandling that poor minority woman and her baby?

Good question, I hadn't noticed that terrible situation previously, LOL

this really makes me happy from inside great to see people helping each other in difficult times life is all about caring :)
