My philosophy is

if you cannot do good to them at least do no harm.

Thank you @lukakorba, I agree with you that "The worst punishment is to throw someone out of your heart."
Not every action deserves our reaction, sometimes ignoring is the best choice.

If you 'cannot' do good to someone, ask yourself why it is that you apparently 'cannot'. In a way, not doing good to someone, especially when they're in need, simply because we 'cannot', is a sign of selfish, ego-driven actions take place.

Is ignoring someone not the equivalent of throwing them out of your heart?
