THE ACT OF SELFLESSNESS
THE ACT OF SELFLESSNESS
***
Hello everyone here in this wonderful community ,yeah it has been awhile I write here on hive generally but I am so happy I found my place back here to write here in the wonderful community.
I really like the topic of this week that says : _Giving back_When we talk about giving ,it is something that goes beyond human understanding in so many perspectives.
Why did I say so ? I noticed many of us don't just give but give for some reasons while some give because they want to give without expecting any returns.
Here are the reasons I think people give.
1.Some give because it is mandatory for them .
2.Some give because it is what they grow up seeing in their family.
3.Some give because they love to just give.
4.Some give because they have surplus.
I will explain this further to our understanding.
1.Why some give because it is mandatory: people give sometimes based on what they have been passing through and because of what they want to get in return.
For example,here in Nigeria we have really seen a lot of politicians giving back to the society not because they love to give but it has been confirmed for years that it is because of their selfish interests,they purposely do that to buy their ways to people's heart ,so they can vote them in .*
They believe through that they can get what they want in return.
2.Why some people give ,it is because they grow up seeing that in their parents or family. Seriously, recently I discovered that most people giving out something have their own reasons while some don't know why ,they just give because they feel it is the normal way of life. So many people give because it is now like a tradition to them and they can't just stop giving which I think is good in a way .
3.Some give because they just love to give: seriously ,I really give kudos to these sets of people because they are very rare in the society ,these kind of people give without thinking of anything attached to it ,they just love giving ,but to be more sincere ,I personally thinks giving is great gift from God . Our father in heaven also gave willingly so we all wouldn't perish.
So to me giving is truly a precious gift from God.
4.Some give because they have surplus: To be more sincere ,my writing won't really make sense if I failed to mention these last set of people who give because they have surplus . This set of people actually give just because they know they have plenty and it won't make any sense if they don't give back .
So kind of giving I personally don't see it as giving from the heart because I see that giving is supposed to be a sacrificial thing.
This is my response to HIVE GHANA PROMPT WEEK 108.

I really enjoyed reading this, you broke it down so well. It's so true that people give for different reasons and not everyone giving comes from the same place in their heart. I also liked what you said about giving being a sacrificial art. And yes, those who give simply because they love to... they're the rare gems in the world today. It's nice to see someone reflect so deeply on this topic. Thanks for sharing
I am glad my write up passed a message that get to you , thank you very much for stopping by
