RE: Making Steemit better a minnow at a time (XVIII) - Giving
Okay lets quickly practicalize this, i want to give you something, i stretch out my hand to give you right, then you receive, good. If you decide to hold on to what has been given to you, you wont have space to receive another one, but if you give out, then you can only receive more. Its a natural principle, even though a lot of religion encourage it, it goes beyond religion. Giving opens the door to receiving, its a principle.
This is my opinion. Cheers
Good explanation.
Thank you bro
I totally agree with you. But I guess the practical problem in all of this is our expectation. It's actually easy to give in a sense, since we live in an affluent society. But if you give without a certain expectation or attachment, then this is, in my view, real dedication. It's like nature: nature gives and gives and does not necessarily need something in return from us for everything it gives (although we shouldn't exploit it to a point where it can not recover itself).
So true, this is the real virtue, giving without asking for anything.
