How do I explain he did a Good deed yet he got something else — the opposite of all he gave?
For me, I do my "little" good but, having to see it reap negativities, false reports, disgrace, unfair treatment is something that hurts — hurts deeply.
I have seen people near me reach out to do good to those around them, but get rewarded with things that end up hurting or breaking their hearts.
These make me wonder 'if we were given the chance to see how people we do good to will respond before we do it, will we go ahead with it?"
For me, I believe it would be hard to go on with it — knowing I could get hurt for my good heart.
It would have to take a strong impression & nudge to do it anyway (with a pained & struggling heart).
Yet, I see someone who despite knowing he'll be mocked, despised, rejected, did a whole lot of "Good" even to the last & greatest of them all — the greatest Good that could exist.
The fact that someone knew he won't be praised nor appreciated at that point of his doing good yet he did it anyway?
I mean why do a thing when all you'll end up getting is nothing but falsehood, condemnation & dissociation?
Yet, to my surprise, I saw he did it, not complaining, nor refusing, he did it because it was worth it. Not for Himself but for "People"; not for that moment alone, but for a life time.
And for that "Good" that still speaks, though at the moment it happen wasn't appreciated, we all remain forever grateful for all goodness that "Good" brought.
The greatest Good of all time!
If you were given the chance to see how people you do good to will respond before you do that good, will you still go ahead with it?"
