Quote & Thought for the Day -- Thursday, 25 Sept '08

“Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.”

--Chinese Proverb

My Thoughts:
This proverb from the sea of Chinese wisdom tells you one simple thing – if you want to help someone, the best help is not to give away something, but to teach the person how to be self-sufficient.

No help is better than that where you make a person stand on his own feet and be independent of others.
