Do Not Expect Gratitude From Anyone
Almighty Allah has created His servants so that they may worship and remember Him,and he has provided sustenance for them so that they may be grateful to Him.
Nevertheless,many have worshipped other than Him,and the majority of people are thankful not to Him,but to others.Indeed,the characteristic of ingratitude is widespread among human beings.So do not be dismayed when you find that others forget your favours or disregard your kind acts.
Some people might even despise you and make you an enemy for no other reason than that you have shown kindness.
Almighty Allah says:And they could not find any cause to bear a grudge,except that Allah and His Messenger had enriched them of His Bounty[At-Tawbah 9:74]
From among the ever-repeating pages of history is a story of a father and his son:
The father raised his son,fed him,clothed him,and taught him;he would stay up nights so that his son could sleep,stay hungry so that his child could eat,and toil so that his son could feel comfort.And when the son became older and stronger,he rewarded his father with disobedience,disrespect,and contempt.
So be at peace if you are requited with ungratefulness for the good you have done.
Rejoice in your knowledge that you will be rewarded from the One Who has unlimited treasures at His disposal...

I like your points sis!
I found this gr8 poem on a card my cuz had...thought i'l share it...
You may spend some time in pleasing some
But the pleasing of all can never be done
Don't even try to do all things
For those who can have great white wings.
Live your life the best you know
Let those "downers" help you grow.
In your search for peace of mind
Don't be hurt by words unkind
Don't rely on others deeds
For your joy or your needs...
Keep your faith pure and strong
Take the blame when you are wrong
Go and catch the dreams you seek
Be yourself
You are unique.
