Steemit is making me a better giver

in #nigeria7 years ago

Winston S. Churchill once said that "
We make a living by what we get. We make a life by what we give" Gift.jpg
Of a truth life comes with its own struggles, it's low moments, dark times and more often, we get to meet people that are in need
If you have ever lived a tough life and have had to struggle hard just for your life to make sense, you'd understand other people's struggles and in most cases you wish you could help them out of such situations
Recently in Nigeria, the issue of religious teachers and giving has been trending so much and has gone to both extremes one of which giving to the poor is being emphasized
People have needs but majorly financial needs have been topping the list, of which they can never have enough but there's something they could have that would make them comfortable
Steemians are the first set of people I've noticed that give, i mean the whole steemit community revolves around giving....
Some steemians resteem our posts to give us a wider audience, upvote our comments on their posts, upvote our posts without us reaching out to them,
@stach recently gave something huge to the uyo community
@promo-steem has been giving sbds from time to time, ![images.jpg](
@steemit-uyo in less than 24hours contributed to get a phone for a member who was robbed
I could make a long list of steemians and their gifts
These gestures have spurred something in me and i always look for opportunities to give,
Giving is indeed living

Sort:  

Giving can never be separated from love, let's keep spreading love, there's nothing beautiful in seeing people suffering.
Nice one dear

Hello Vheobong
The steemit community is not just an online community but a family. This is what we were meant for.

True talk @vheobong, we can't separate giving from our endeavour here on steemit, the whole idea of the community is centered on giving and giving is what we would keep doing.
Keep Steeming
