Strengthening Others
You should always try to strengthen others. As a human race we should always try to make others stronger. Could you imagine how well this world would be if we all works together to love and help one another? Alas, I am afraid this is not only alien to some but also many people have an aversion to helping others. There is a difference between "not getting involved" and "letting others down." Can we really deny the temptation to help steer someone to the shore in this storm we call life? I certainly hope so. I suppose in this article I will make an argument of why the human nature may be geared towards helping others, even if they don't want to.
A Factor: Empathy
Empathy exists in all with only extreme exception. We feel each others pain and sorrow. On the other hand, we also feel each other's joy and love. We can only help others if we put our empathy behind. We must help the person led astray without our emotions getting involved.
Yet, but what of our own emotions? our own emotions get in the way of other's emotions. A lot of the time, this can be for the better, as someone kind who touches someone else's life who is depressed can easily help strengthen their fellow man or woman. We can aide others as long as we don't get empathetic: anger will not help the angry, as sorrow can not help the sorrowful. I can not stress enough how patient you must be to strengthen others.
To strengthen others does not require any actual emotional or mental strength. It merely requires you to care about others. I cannot call man a lost cause, for they are the reason for living. No one wants to be alone, and all it takes is a mindful ear. No real strength, you just need a kind soul. Man and women were given two things, a mouth and ear. These two senses can be used for both good and bad, in the case of the tongue, and also the ear to some extend. An ear, though, is a powerful thing. You have the power to show someone love by listening to their problems. The mouth should be used in good conduct, to wish and bolster the one in trouble that you listened to.
Enlightenment is the key to ending suffering. So therefore will our own enlightenment curb other's suffering? No, but there is one thing to keep in mind, that by keeping good conduct we can teach others through our own ways, yet it should be understood that we must not force our way on others. We can help others to understand that there's more to life than suffering.
Strength Through Love
We empower and strengthen others through our love. We often stay segregated with our love to only our own loved ones. To strengthen others, we must love everyone. I know there is some people who are absolute walking bad karma, but they can shine too. All it takes is a smile or friendly words to make anyone shine. Impart love in to others, and share in their victories. We can make a difference with our good conduct, keeping love in our mind. Doesn't everyone to some extent deserve love?
Conclusion
We should try to help our fellow brother and sister. We are all held to karmic law. If we are to war against our own people then surly we are not enlightened. To be free is to be enlightened, and to strengthen your fellow human is something amazing you can do for both you and their heart. Go out there, and strengthen your fellow brother and sister. Love them, and never stop loving them.
