Are humans altruist by nature ?
Many of us get a lot of messages on WhatsApp and other social media. Other then direct messages, some are philosophical messages. We choose to skip or read it. If we read & understand the message, we try to relate it, to ourself or to someone we know of. In this process, we may forward it to a select set of people in good faith. Why do we share?
At heart we believe that, our forwards will be useful and help the reciepient. Here the reciepient is an individual in a direct forward rather than forwards in a group. The other qualifiers are :
Think of those birthday,anniversary wishes & condolence messages that are posted in a groups or on social media pages. More than sincerely wishing or conveying to the concerned , these are the ultimate forms of unintended insults bestowed on the reciepient !
Think before you forward & post
