What u need now

There are some folks in this world, folks in this world that many of us can do without. However, our home training and knowledge of being humble and caring of others may get in the way. I know many of you have folks like this in your life or may have known of such folks. You tend to only hear from them, see them or get a call from them when they want and need something.

I will not call them leeches, for such would be derogatory and mean, but I will venture to call such people helpless and selfish. For when you need or ask them for something they can’t, won’t or worse, will say they will do it but never will. I man I know people like this so when they do cal I start off by asking "what u need now?" And they have the audicity to get mad.

As for me, I do what I say and take pride in being caring, but some folks may see this as a weakness and attempt to take for granted my kind actions and generosity. The strange thing is that when you stop enabling their dependence, they turn on you and say and do foul things in an effort to get you back – when they have never done anything for you in the first place.

So I say this in jest, just to invoke in others the understanding that no mater what you do for some people, the are never satisfied and will complain and never should you respect or appreciation of being kind and generous. Do not ever stop being kind and generous, just accept and know that there are some people, that will never do anything for another, for they only care and concern themselves wit themselves.

  1. For some reason that is all true. But what about the people that will help you out in your time of need. Come to find out that everybody in the neighborhood knows the person did you a favor. What type of people are they?

  2. You have a valid point, though it is oh so difficult not to let the cynicism bog you down! And, though selfish is appropriate to describe, I d prefer the title 'leech'.

  3. Ah the users of the world! How to differentiate them from the truly poor. I know the users well. As long as helping them doesn't really take the food out of one's own kid's mouth, I'll allow myself to be used. The users of the world don't mind taking food out of your kid's mouths...

    But I've noticed that when leeches do get a lot of their own money, they don't remember those who have helped them. They still think you have "more than they do." And they have been receiving for so long, they don't know how to give. Trust me on this: I have been leeched upon by the best and most self-righteous of leeches.
