Kwenye jamii zetu, hususani jamii za kiafrika, kusaidiana ni moja ya wajibu wa kila mtu. Pamoja na kuwa ni wajibu wetu, tunaaswa kuwa makini katika kusaidia watu.
Watu wengi wamejitoa kusaidia watu, tena kwa moyo mkunjufu sana. Lakini inafika wakati msaada wao unawagharimu sana, hasa pale wanapokutana na maudhi toka kwa wale waliowasaidia. Maudhi yanaweza kuwa ya aina nyingi, mojawapo ni kusemwa vibaya na huyo/hao uliowasaidia. Badala ya kutoa shukurani, eti wanakusema. Wanaweza hata wakadiriki kusema umewasaidia kwa kuwapa vitu ambavyo havina thamani, ni vile ambavyo wao wanafikiri uliona huna kazi navyo, yaani ni kama vitu vya kutupa. Lakini wewe kwa moyo wako wa utu na upendo ulivitunza ili vije viwasaidie wenye uhitaji. Dharau hii huuma sana na hata kukatisha tamaa kuendelea kuwa na moyo wa kusaidia watu.
Ni mara chache sana ambapo mtu anaweza kukushukuru kwa yale uliyomtendea. Wengine hawatauthamini msaada wako katu, hata ufanyeje. Pengine ule msemo wa Tenda wema Uende zako, unaweza kufaa kwenye hili tunaloliongelea la watu kutobebeka.
Binadamu tunatakiwa kusaidiana iwezekanavyo, pale inaposhindikana, msaada wako unapoambulia tuhuma na lawama tele, inabidi utafakari tena na tena, kama uendelee kusaidia, ama laa. Ule usemi wa Binadamu kiumbe mzito unaweza kuwa sahihi katika mazingira kama haya, mazingira ya utovu wa shukurani. Yatupasa kushukuru hata kwa kile kidogo tunachopewa.
