This is probably an unfortunate outcome of being cheated many times. I prefer to volunteer my time and efforts. If someone asks me for money for wife/ mother/ father/ child's illness, I say that I'll come with you and see the affected person and then give you the money. It always works as these people immediately backtrack.Sudhahttp://thatandthisinmumbai.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3263124958517642285.post-33391663721964553782011-03-07T20:01:53.319+05:302011-03-07T20:01:53.319+05:30@Doc: Thank you for sharing your experiences and l...@Doc: Thank you for sharing your experiences and liking the post as well:)<br /><br />@Bikramjit: Yes tricky indeed,glad to see many of my fellow bloggers discussing so much about this TBTC syndrome here,hope we all do something about it:)Raksha Bhathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08325913646466909469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3263124958517642285.post-1940574997865923962011-03-07T18:23:27.655+05:302011-03-07T18:23:27.655+05:30lovely post
Well If i put myself in such a scene ...lovely post <br />Well If i put myself in such a scene then let me answer you, you might find this offensive of selfish but his is me.. <br /><br />If it happens in UK someone is sick or hurt on road or whatever I have always helped them .. well you can say thats part of my job duty or off duty .. <br /><br />If it was india i will think twice.. I have had some very bad experiences out there for helping someone in need.. and not just once but tice now .. so yes I will probably call the police or hospital to help someone but put my hands on , I doubt if i will do it .. <br /><br />Its a tricky question depends on what one has experienced but this is my take on it , here me going hands on no second thoughts .. and i preay to god that it happens that way .. <br /><br /><a href="http://mannbikram.wordpress.com" rel="nofollow">Bikram's</a>Bikramhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17320753339263375295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3263124958517642285.post-77131271078788266222011-03-07T15:48:55.927+05:302011-03-07T15:48:55.927+05:30Hi Raksha,
Your post on the stranger - stranger i...Hi Raksha, <br />Your post on the stranger - stranger interaction is spot on. <br />Through your write up, am sure just like me, many other readers will agree we too have had at least a couple of such incidents in our life already. <br />Just to cite an example. 2 days ago, I was outside a children's park when 2 drunk guys [figured that when I helped them up] on a bike rammed into an Activa driven by an elderly couple. My first instinct was to help them off the road and ensure no serious injuries occurred. In a matter of seconds, a crowd had formed and since the incident occurred just outside the Traffic Police station beside the park, they took over immediately. <br />On the other hand, 2 weeks ago at my native place, I was attending the festivities with my cousins when a group of young drunk men were eve teasing a woman and it was getting overboard. My cousins immediately frisked me off from the vicinity saying "It's best we don't get involved in such matters". <br />I am sure you get the hang of what am saying. <br />How we respond to a situation like this depends partly on our personality, in addition to assessing the circumstances. I suggest, go with your gut, cause more often than not, you will be right. <br />Cheers for a thought provoking post Raksha, keep posting :)Dochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10286875433610637506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3263124958517642285.post-78669295579649755712011-03-07T13:32:43.313+05:302011-03-07T13:32:43.313+05:30@Nandita Prakash: Thank you:)@Nandita Prakash: Thank you:)Raksha Bhathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08325913646466909469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3263124958517642285.post-7110533954555290262011-03-07T11:20:39.622+05:302011-03-07T11:20:39.622+05:30very nice post sweety
