Why people do not 'give'.

I was added to a Whatsap group of a friend the other day. He had lost his mother through cancer -RIP. And he had added all his contacts to the group with intention that they 'contribute'. He called the group, Friends of X. X is his name. And everyday he begs. The contribution list is of a few, he keeps sharing it, that I winder whether those who contributed are cooked names...people, the world has people.

So I feel him. Those who comment say that the home is really needy. It is the same as a friend on Facebook who started posting that, 'My marriage is on rocks', help me God. Pray for me people!' And it later was, 'she has miscarried,' before he went, 'people please help, help, help.' All the time he ends posts with his phone number. Recently he thanked the area pastor for sending him something. All that on his online page.

People do not give simply because it is not their concern. Stand up to your problems. And when you look like choreographing means to have them give they just 'look aside'.

We also have a Whatsap group. All members belong by identity. All they have ever done is that only a tenth committed to registration. A tenth. The rest have their business. They do not want you to meddle. They therefore do not give because they simply don't want to. No reason why.

And there are those who give in their own ways. That when you assume they do not give they have a rich history of giving. Unless you walk with them, listen, observe, you would never know. And that is why they don't give -as you expect.
