Is charity a movement of the soul?

What is charity? What includes this simple concept? From my point of view, charity is when you help those who need it. Help can be as money or other things such as moral support or heartfelt conversation. It is wonderful when people do it from the best intentions. But it can be differently.

The “fashion” concept as the totality of habits and values accepting at a certain time appeared in the middle of the fourteen century. And every year fashion changed constantly. In the 21^st century it has been popular to do charity work. Mass-media has shown various videos to attract many people. Bloggers have shown trips to homeless shelters where they have helped people and animals in need. They also have told about the amazing feeling after this business. People have done charity work from the concept of “everyone is doing this and it is popular now”. As a result, the world is getting more hard-hearted.

I believe it is important to realise some things about it:

The 1^st. Charity is not an obligation in the people’s life. If everyone is doing this, it does not matter you have to do it as well.

The 2^nd. Charity includes giving kindness and help other people because you really want to do it. That is it. If you do not want to help, no one will push you.

And last but not least. If you do charity work, you need to want it very much and do it from unselfish motives.

Charity is about sincerity, generosity and sympathy. It is also about selflessness, kindness and goodness.

To sum up, I would like to say that charity is a movement of the soul.

How about doing good from the best purposes? And then it will come back.
