It is frustrating when I realize I can't help as many people as I would like to. But after reading this quote, it is actually a better way to help one and one after one eventually everyone helps everyone, all get help.

We can't help everyone but everyone can help someone

I share this thought with you today. That should be our goal to help someone then that someone can help someone and then it becomes that everyone is helping someone.

Your quote stands the learning time.

The reason I like this quote is because it shows a lot of compassion and teamwork. If a group of people come together and work together productively, then they could help that person in need get the stuff that they were struggling for or need as simple as a fundraiser.

I really like this quote because it shows that everyone can do something and you should always help someone if you can. But if everyone in the world needs help then their has to be people who can help

My mother would always tell me the first part ("We can't help everyone") because she would always see me trying to figure out someway that I can help others, and I would always respond with the remainder -- "but everyone can help someone".

One ripple in a pond can go far. Imagine what hundreds or thousands of ripples can do.

Anytime you can step in and lend a hand, it makes you feel good and someone else too!
