Engaging in good deeds is a fundamental aspect of living a virtuous life, but discernment is equally important. This wisdom advises us to be aware of who benefits from our kindness and generosity. It's not about being selective in a negative sense but about ensuring that our efforts are truly beneficial and not squandered. By understanding the needs and character of those we help, we can ensure that our actions have a lasting positive impact. This approach encourages us to be thoughtful and intentional, using our resources wisely to support those who genuinely need assistance. It also helps us avoid enabling behaviors that might not lead to positive outcomes. In essence, this guidance is about maximizing the effectiveness of our good deeds, ensuring they contribute to the greater good and align with our values.
When you do a good deed, make sure you know who is benefiting from it, and then your good deeds will not be wasted.
