Favors are supposed to work both ways.

Whether they are between neighbors, friends, co-workers, or even someone you just met.

And someone shared a post on Reddit that offers up a great example of something their mother did that all of us can learn from.

Read the post below.

The lesson made Reddit users think and some of them weighed in about how this lesson affected them.

This person could relate with their own fatigue issues and that they do certain things to maintain some dignity in their life.

And this reader who grew up poor said they could relate and that their own mother taught them similar lessons through her actions.

Another individual argued that dignity is everything in life and losing the ability to care for yourself is very painful.

Finally, this Reddit user said that it really does feel good to help others and we should all let others help us. Good plan!
