Look Before You Leap

Yesterday one of my friends fired her boss and said to us that she needs my help. Frankly to say that I was shocked, but I still said” okay”. At that time, I thought that she just need a hug from us. Later she said that she had no place to go, so I gave her some words that I can offer a room ……My elder sister and I share a narrow room together, so I telephoned my sister to ask if she could just go to Sophia’s home to pass over the crowded night , I thought she would give me a promise, however, she said “it’s just your business, you just can’t drive me away from my place and I tell you that offer help to others is a good thing, but you should think twice whether you can find a room for her”. Finally, I drove myself away to another friend’s dormitory…….
Later, I learn a lot from this that we really should think twice before things and only under the condition that we can handle all things well, can we do all good. If the thing he asks for is out of our control, then say “no” to him without delay,or you’ll offend him. Say “no” to others before you make a promise is better to tell them you can’t keep it later.

Sounds like a good lesson was learned. But don't let that stop you from being kind and generous! (By the way, I just added you to my list of friends!)
WELCOME!!!

I personally don't make promises, whether I think I can keep them or not. I'll say, "I'll do what I can", but not "I promise to...."

This was a great lesson to me, and now I saw, though too late, the folly of beginning a work before we count the cost, and before we judge rightly of our own strength to go through with it. You are the man I should learn from.
