I have come to realise why sometimes poeple are proud to ask for help from others. It is because of their experiences where they did ask, and instead of helping or answering that they cannot help, those they asked begin to embarass them.
Imagine asking someone to lend you money, not even give you a gift, lend, and he begins to tell you how unserious you are, because you did not follow the part he wants you to. It would have been better to say, sorry i cannot assist you, than to start telling him how unseriuos you think he is in front of others, when you did not even answer him and you have not stayed with him to know the effort he has made to achieve the result but because he failed, you say he was not serious. Well then, try to do better than sit in your comfort and comdemn those toiling under the sun, because you are better today does not mean others are not serious.
Thank God who has promised us riches because he is not man that he will lie.
