Contribution

Everyone feels that the result of their life should lead to something and this feeling is the result of our need for contribution. People want to have an output that makes a difference in others’ lives, as much as they like to receive that contribution from others.

Everyone understands what charity is all about, people are ready to sacrifice a bit of themselves if they are sure that it will help others. This also explains why most people, as they get older, become more and more interested in helping others either directly or through charity. It is a need that works much like this; that I took from others in the beginning of my life and of course I would have to return the favour eventually. Many people who become successful and rich in life tend to start focusing on helping others when they reach the age of 50 and beyond.
