Mankind Helping Each Other People are selfish by nature, however we have demonstrated times of great sacrifice when such sacrifice is needed. Helping other people is an act most of us perform without even thinking about it. For centuries neighbors have help other neighbors, families have helped other family members and internationally, governments have given other countries’ governments advice, food, medical care, military help or financial support. We live in a country that has always been there for other countries that have needed our help whether they have wanted it or not. Have you ever thought about how selfless Americans are in a time of war or great national tragedy and how selfish we are in times of peace? This might be because in times of peace we are so involved with ourselves that we have no time to think about the needs of others and in time of war we think only about the problem before us. The United States has always helped others in need. Our men and women have fought in many wars on foreign soil to ensure other’s freedom. We have risked the lives of our sons and daughters for another’s benefit. We have fed underprivileged countries of the world, often forgetting that we have hungry people right here in our own backyards.
