CHARITY REALLY BEGINS AT HOME

Hello everyone, I hope you are doing well today.

Charity begins at home is a known proverb that means that if anyone wants to help other people in society, then that person needs to start with his or her family.
If you really want to do good, then you need to make sure that you start the food with your immediate family members, as that will mold you into being good to other people in society without being tired.
If you cannot help your immediate family, then helping others would be a very big task for you.

I remember that while growing up, my mom would always tell us to go help our relatives, not for anything but so that we would learn fast too. But before she tells us to go there, she will first of all teach us how to do house chores in the house so that we won't go there and not know what to do.
Mom would always say that if we want to become good people, we need to start it among ourselves. She would always tell me to take care of my younger siblings so that I would know how to take care of my children.

Saying sorry to your family members, maybe your younger siblings or your parents, makes it very easy to say sorry to other people.
I remember one child who could not say sorry to me, not because he was not sorry but because he did learn or see the need to say sorry to me.

In your various homes, learn who you want to become in society at large.
If you do not learn how to share in your home, you will end up being greedy when you finally hold a position in society.
There are people who cannot manage public funds, and this is because they did not learn how to manage the food cooked in the house. Maybe they usually share the biggest share, letting other people in the house eat a smaller portion or not take anything at all.

The proverb "Charity Begins at Home" makes it very easy for families to bond with themselves because they will not see the need to hate themselves because they care for themselves equally.
It makes it possible for family members to live in harmony; nobody will have to stay on their own because they have people checking on them from time to time.

If anyone is abusive, then you should know that they began it in their homes. Everyone is a product of their families.

It is very important to learn charity in the home because it is an agent of socialization.
If things are not learned in the home, there will be no better person in society.

Very much agree with you. You touched on a very good point in your post: learning to ask for forgiveness also starts at home. We serve others in the same proportion that we serve ourselves. If we don't serve our family, but we do serve other people, we are not practicing charity at home 💟
