Many people tell me: "Thank you for your help (with English editing). I hope I can help other people some day." This makes me very happy.
I am sure there is a Chinese expression for such a kind thought. In English, it is called "pay it forward." (Clearly, I don't expect these people to edit my English writing, though they may point out the mistakes and typos I have in my Blog.)
If we can all help others without expecting payback and people pay it forward, what a wonderful world we can all live in!
Note: The expression "pay it forward" is used to
describe the concept of asking that a good turn be repaid by having it done to
others instead.
