This is NOT the way that giving is supposed to work, is it?
For the third part of this series I will share a recent event that is very strange. It all started back when I wanted to start putting some of the 1500 limited edition STEEM "COMMUNITY" 1 oz Silver Rounds into the hands of some other steemians.
Among others on my list was none other than the "Old Dog" @kus-knee. However, it seems that he can be a hard man to just "give something" to.
You see, when I first contacted @kus-knee to get a shipping address so I could bless him with a STEEM 1 oz Silver round, he was so touched that he offered to send me back a Silver round, and suggested that I choose either an Australian Koala or Australian Kookaburra.
Well, I made my choice, but did the Old Dog care? No, actually he didn't and just sent me both instead! What kind of man tries to gift someone a 1 oz Silver round and gets back two ounces of Silver in return?
ARE YOU SERIOUS?
HIS CREATIVITY PAID OFF
To try to avoid mail thieves detecting the precious metal and make sure that they made it to me, @kus-knee got creative and had some fun disguising the Silver. Since he's had mail go missing before, he didn't want to risk losing this precious "thank you" that he was blessing me with.
Thankfully, they made it here, although we were a little worried for a bit. Here's the video @kus-knee made when he got my package.
Thankfully the concern he expressed about the whereabouts of the Silver that he was sending me is not relieved! Seriously though, have you ever got back twice as much in return as you tried to give someone else? I think that this may have been a first for me! What a community this steemit is to be a part of!

Until next time…
Don’t waste your time online, invest it with steemit.com
I'm so glad that they finally arrived and thanks for the nice unpacking video!
When you practice giving like you do than you will receive. Not because you give to get but because it is a principal of life that when applied it works. Keep up the great work @papa-pepper!
Yes indeed! This is how it works in the higher spheres.
I really loved this post and both you @kus-knee and @papa-pepper ! A couple of the most awesome dudes on steemit , truly giving from the heart is the greatest gift of all !!! those videos are great LOL! Bravo !!💕👏💕👏💕👏💕👏💕👏💕👏
Everything about this Post is so cool.
Haha OMG this is truly fantastic @papa-pepper ! love @kus-knee and follow both you guys , your so right about what an awesome community Steemit is !! I would love some day to meet you guys and many other awesome steemians at some point , perhaps at a steemfest in the near future !! 🎉👍🎉👍🎉👍🎉
coin indonesia.
Cool!
This might make you an honorary member of #teamaustralia :-)
Amazing.
Truly!
thank you for replying to my comment
I love the Australian Kookaburras. Beautiful coins!
This is actually my first one !
The Koalas are made just as well, but I think the Kookaburras have a better design. The picture changes every year and some look better than others. They have a little bit of a premium over generic rounds, but I think they're worth it.
Soon your gift coin collection will be more then steem you have, because gifts are precious 👍
Seems the old dog, got his heart melted by your gestures, i love the fact that you do business quite good hahaha
He's always been a giver too! This was still crazy though!
Of course it was lol, enjoy the coin business
That's the mirror effect. Your attitude towards others will often be mirrored back at you
I have never do that @papa-pepper .. I think this is very was good 👍👍👍
Very beautiful coins. All dad's work is great. I do not want to miss every post @papa-pepper.
Very beautiful coins.
Keep stacking Papa
Looks like I'll have to now!
Another great example of why I love the Steemit community.
There are a lot of amazing folks on here and though my ceaseless attempts to convert others to the platform have born little fruit, it’s apparent many prefer the social dramas of Facebook and the like to truth and prosperity of which so much is being offered in its many facets.
They’ll come around though.
@papa-pepper as always it’s been a pleasure & I’ve gotta give a special shout out to @kus-knee for being a stand up dude and taking care of the community.
Steemit is a better place because of cats like these two.
Post & Prosper with Steemit. Cheers.
He certainly is a stand up dude! I agree with your kind words about our community! It is so cool to be a part of it!
Karma!!
Sometimes the giving is better than receiving. It seems he has a grateful heart and wanted to give back to you.
@kus-knee is one of the best people to interact with on Steemit to interact
I agree!
you two are two of a kind, both straight up and generous people, it is a pleasure to have meet/steemed with both of you.
It is more blessed to give than to receive. Enjoy your coins, they are beautiful!
Bountiful post will dony
Lovely coins, Inflation rendered my country coins worthless. How sad! but still can't imagine having to burden my pocket with some coins added to my phones....lol

Good content.
@papa-pepper if i want to ask, i'll do that for one question, where you from?
Usa
Thanks you Papa
The great thing about Steemit is that we ALL benefit from being social, organising communities and sharing our stuff. Those are nice coins. Love the Aussie Mint stuff.
That's a pretty nice blessing @papa-pepper!
Everyone is so caught up with receiving, that people sometimes people don't even think about giving first. That's magical in a way. When someone truly wants to gift something to another person, the very last thing they think of is getting something back.
He got you good lol
<3 shello
Edit: I forgot, Steemian @mikepm74 is looking to buy a Steemit coin, do you know where to get them? He wants a part of history!
@mikepm74 could try @sevinwilson, @raybrockman, @thedamus or others, those names were just off the top of my head.
Hello papa-pepper,
I let him know, I also came back when I had enough SP to vote x'D
Thanks again for your help!
shello
See, there are so many generous people out there. through you, I'm coming across so many givers here. This is just wonderful and the Australian Kookaburra is just beautiful. Loved it! Hope to get a few of these for myself one day :)
Amazing idea !! Good job freind !!
Funny how blessings work and just goes to show how our Creator works with blessings.
It really is interesting, isn't it?
It blows the mind in so many ways how creator moves mountains and removes walls and stumbling blocks in this most jaded world we live in.
Hey bro, sent you Ch 37-39 to your email, feel free whenever you have time to post it.
Great, looks like I should write that final chapter now.
A sad but beautiful thing to read. I look forward to seeing how you end it all.
So many great things happen here on Steemit. This was an amazing trade that doesn't happen often. I call this Karma.
How wonderful a coin of steem I think it will be the future currency in the coming years
