Should one expect a reward when doing a good deed?做好事應
A great many people presume upon a reward when doing a good deed. First and foremost, there is a natural tendency to equate doing good deeds with a certain amount of reward, and reward with a certain amount of money. What is more, they maintain that since the basis of contemporary society is money, one of the major means of earning money is getting reward by doing good deeds.
On the contrary, the vast majority of people assume that doing a good deed should be based on people’s personal interests. Hence, doing a good deed is fulfilling itself and reward is of minimal significance. Numerous examples can be given, but this will suffice. Mr. Leifeng lived a simple life dedicated to doing good deeds without expecting any reward and helping people from all walks of life, yet he was remembered as one of the most successful hero of our time.
Generally speaking, it is my view that we should not expect a reward when doing a good deed. We do this for enjoyment, fulfillment and other spiritual enhancement, not for the purpose of reward.
很多人認為在一個激勵做一件好事。首先,有一種自然傾向將一定數量的獎賞行善,有一定金額的獎勵。更重要的是,他們認為當今社會的基礎是金錢,掙錢的一種方式是通過做好事獲得回報。
相反,大多數人認為做好事應該基于人的個人利益。因此,做好事是履行本身的回報并不重要。可以給出無數的例子,但這就足夠了。雷鋒生活簡樸,一生致力于做好事不求任何回報,幫助各行各業的人們,然而他被公認為是我們這個時代最成功的英雄。
總的來說,我認為我們應該做好事不期待回報。我們這樣做是為了享受,成就和其他精神升華,不是為了回報。
