Does helping others make you upset in a good way ?

I notice that when i help others such as seeing someone who looks hungry or thirsty when i walk into a gas station or someone asking for food & asking them what it is they want and ordering it for them even if it seems like alot unhoused or someone in a time if need i seen on a reddit post and i PM them to help them with alittle amount they may need help with. It really does get to me and not alot gets me i would picture myself as cold hearted, but when it comes to helping other humans i get upset about it after i helped them.

Maybe its because i seen some people help me as a kid when my mom had nothing, or maybe because i just know what its like compeltely to be down and out & needed help and know what its like to be ignored and not have anyone really care & i know what its like to be a stray dog without a family or a wolf cut from the pack. I really dont know why but i know it upsets me and i keep those people in my prayers.

In what way do you feel upset? That such people are being ignored and not enough is done to help them?

I am upset to begin with. Helping and communicating makes me a bit less upset.

@SunshineGirl it makes me upset knowing nobody really cares but also the fact i know their pain and i know what its like to be a stray and put out there and i pray they get help, and to be blessed as i been blessed.

@Different I work late at my office two nights a week. The security guard lets a couple of young women sleep in the doorway because they are so vulnerable. I bring them as much food as I can and try to get them to accept good advice because they are so young, not much older than my daughter. But each week they are still there.

@SunshineGirl thats the ish im talking about stuff like that, young girls like that should not be out there, should be shelters and with selter for longer term stays for one tome for 60 days, and then they send these people right back to the streets with no help and all they know is the streets with no chanced to get back on their feet unless their lucky and if not thats the circumstances that have to be done and thank u for helping them i hope God blesses u with more.

It just upsets me cause i know it very well no supportive parents and straight out there to be a stray
