You can find various types of people in day to day life. Some people are always prepared to give something despite having nothing with them.  On the other hand, some are not willing to provide however, they have own houses and ample of assets. I would want to relate two real scenarios that I experienced. 

             

I planned a weekend trip with my colleague to his native. I reached there and was welcomed by his family members. Unfortunately, he lost his father and became the only bread earner of his family. They were staying in a rented house with two rooms. One room was for him, his younger brother and grandmother. They gave me a place to sleep and a very simple and sweet lunch, which had only rice and dal. I have never had any meal like before without dishes. In fact, I felt that food had unconditional essence enriched with affection and hospitality. I was totally satisfied, even though, they might have tried a lot to impress me with their food. It is awful to imagine what they would be eating in a guest's absence.

             

In contrast, there is a story from my native where I spent most of my life. I visited my friend's maternal uncle's home. They have their own houses and jobs. Everyone from his family are self-dependent. His relatives know me very well as I used to be there often during my childhood. There is a famous food stall built beside their house. One day me and my mate planned and went to eat there. The served food was too hot. His uncle saw my friend and said will give a spoon to him in a minute. Eventually, he ignored me though I was with him. I chuckled for my expectation from him, but this is human Courtesy.

             

Hence, one can offer food with happiness to an unfamiliar person and another one did not think to offer a spoon to him who was eating with their beloved one. Expecting opulence and be within is a common goal for everyone, but inside you, the richness could be found in how you are treating people around. A person should think that what he/she can give something to someone around them. Reaching for your goal is ultimate if you are intending for it. Parallels you can get whatever you have dreamed, but we need to generate more humanity and magnanimous nature within us. Giving a penny or come up with any kind of help can gratify you and the seeker as well. It is explained briefly in all sorts of religious texts and prophets by verbally as well. Therefore, please try to give something and have some common sense to you.
