I don't doubt that people are very responsible to their families, friends and themselves, but I am wondering about that people have responsibility to a stranger. Responsibility is an understanding of what we have to do help ourselves or others. Most people might think responsibility is easy, but in reality it is not. If one of our families or friends has trouble, we can easy and provide help immediate. As opposed to a normal person, we will think over it. There are many reasons that people are considering not giving out help to others. However, one person’s responsibility can make big difference.
There are several advantages of being responsible toward people who need help. First, being responsible can lead to increase responsibility of others. For example, once my friend was in car accident on her way home from school in China, the driver ran away. She couldn’t move on road because her left ankle was hurt very badly. When cars drove through next to her, she was very scared. Finally, a person pulled her off on the sidewalk, and then other people who were standing around and watching began to help my friend. Therefore, people have the responsibility to help someone who is in an emergency situation get out of danger. It can also reflect a country, society and community solidarity. There was a huge natural gas explosion in San Bruno two months before, and many people suddenly lost everything. When people heard this news, a lot of people donated food, clothes, and shoes to help the victims to go through lives problems. In additional, there was a magnitude 6.9 earthquake in China’s remote Yushu County, so many people were died and injured. People were enthusiastically donating money and participating in disaster area to help rescue people. If people all take responsibility to all actions, our nation would be much better.
It is important to know that we are not responsibility for things that are out of our control. Nevertheless, there are some best was to help people without money. Being volunteers is one way to help people who are in need. For example, many charity organizations are looking for people to help serve meals to homeless people and exclusive elderly. Another way is to donate things that people need, but it’s extra or useless for you. Such as school supplies, used book, and old clothes are very helpful for children who are in very poor condition mountains areas and disaster areas. I have given out some usable clothes and soft toys to the Misson Ministeries. Moreover, the best way to help someone in danger is to call the police and the emergency ambulance. As an illustration, when you see somebody is in a car accident or a gun shooting situation, the best way is call the police right away and you will not get involve into the case.
Most people suspect a stranger whether to request or offer help. Once I asked a person to borrow a phone to call my sister to pick me up at the bus station because I lost mine at somewhere and didn’t have change for bus fare, but she didn’t believe what I said and she held tight her purse and ran away. I didn’t get her help. Furthermore, I was thought as a swindler. I was angry at what she did and thought about me. Due to this experience, I tried to help an old woman when I saw her having problem at the Bart station’s call box. I asked her, “Is there anything that I can help you?” I thought she must have something important that need to make a phone call, thus I told her to use my cellphone. However, she refused my help and she distrusted me. These indicate my thought of responsibility to people which if I always help people, I will receive help from others is naive.
Generally, people don’t like to take responsibility for others because they all have their own responsibilities’ views and they are affected by many factors. Helping someone is not necessary have to do with money. Sometimes just a little help can have a big effect. Therefore, we have responsibility to help people who are in needed.
