Why is it that very few people give sacrifices and continue to give sacrifice for the happiness and satisfaction of others while the latter do not even acknowledge them?

Maybe because some people are simply meant to bring happiness to others even if they don't always receive the same in return. Perhaps that's just the role life has written for them.

@Ann99 Resigning oneself to fate is what makes it the best answer

@xbandoleerx Thanks for the best comment

@xbandoleerx Sometimes accepting our fate is better than fighting things we can't change.

The fault lays in the nature of society at the moment. I remember the seventies when waiters, teachers and nurses were still respected. Nowadays their expertise is constantly been questioned as if they are mere servants to serve and nothing else. Society doesn't teach any more that kindness and politeness are actually mainstream moral obligations.

Perhaps because some people find joy in giving, while others are simply not aware of what they’re receiving. Sacrifice isn’t always recognized, but that doesn’t make it meaningless.

@Bleak I think those people who are sacrificing for the sake of others to keep them happy and to earn joy in return are more human as compared to others

@xbandoleerx Indeed they are. That’s one way to look at it. I just wonder why genuine selflessness is so rare, while taking it for granted seems so common.

@Bleak the answer is very simple those who do not care are lesser humans

is called low-self esteem, and a desperation to feel included and wanted by other mere mortals. Not a healthy way to live

@nobodyishome do you mean to say that a person who has sufficient self esteem self will not extend help those who are deprived or are in trouble?

@xbandoleerx not at the cost of their own soul becoming demoralized or desperate. Like, in Islam, is mandatory to help, but 2% of what you have. Still a lot for some :)
