A good deed might take a long time to repay like this one but that is not why we do good deeds.
We teach our children to be good people because it will make them happy.
They should know that when they do something for someone not to expect something back.

Maybe someone else is helped because you did a good deed.
It is like paying it forward.
If we do good things with the expectation to get something back, then it is not a good deed anymore.
We do good deeds because it does make us happy.
One day you might need something, or somebody who will help you without thinking twice because they know you are a good person.
Do not be influenced by bad people, if they stay like that you will land up an very unhappy person.
So children pick your friends, and let your parents meet them.
If you think they will not like the person, you know something is wrong.
So never be afraid of taking your friends home, and you will know as well as your parents that you are on the right path to become a wonderful person.
This video tell us this in so many ways so do not skip it as it will teach us all a good lesson.

It's right. Be good or bad person don't have any relationship with religion. You are good person when don't hurt anybody, when you help who need your help.
Thank you so much, that is exactly how I feel about life. Love replies and this was very kind.
True story
Thank you for your reply I so agree with you.
very true about the kid's friends, some that have been brought home have made the hair on the back of the neck rise.
Oh tell me about it, and then you have to be so tactfull to try and fix what you see happening.
We had a 1/2 size pool table as the kids went through their teens at school. All the kids wanted to come to our place so we were able to keep a reasonably good eye on things, thank goodness.
Oh how wonderful. I was the spoiler and always made the things they loved to eat. Somehow they all came around to us. This also helped and my children knew that they could bring their friends home.
As my husband was the headmaster at school, we could always sort things out. :-)
