Helping is Caring

I do not believe that I am doing such a thing. I have never ever done anything like this before. Since young I have always had my parents(mostly mum), maid or sister to do this for me. Guess what it is. It is something that is always done during Christmas and other occasions similar to it. It is also an action that is not very tough to do.
The action is called gift wrapping. I went to buy some gifts for the upcoming Christmas festival for my friends.(Sorry mum and dad, I spent quite an amount of money on the presents)While I was walking home from the departmental store, I was thinking if I was going to wrap up the present before giving it to them. I ended up doing so.
Anyway, that is not the main topic of the post today, today i would like to say about some feelings I felt.
Today and a few days back, I helped some people and what I did was really nothing. But when they said thank you to me and gave me a smile, I felt something warm stirring inside me. It felt very nice. I think that this is why a lot of people say that helping others is a very happy thing.
I do agree with that statement, but maybe with a little change. Helping others when money is not involved is a very happy thing.(money isn't really a factor if you are very very extremely rich or the money involved is of an insignificant amount)
I feel that the receiver of the help is also very happy as when I receive help from others I would also feel glad for their help.
