Good day to you all my tutors and learners here on Hive.
Every day is another day to wake up and be grateful for life and what it has offered us. Most times I love to see people show kindness to each other, and this should not be because of any return or payback, but solely out of humanity. Like they call it karma. It would move around somehow. You might not be the one to receive it but maybe your generations to come. So why not just keep doing and practice good instead of the other way?
In the beginning
I have been with my boss for several months now and it has been nearly a year since I started training. The training was slated to last for three months at maximum because there is not any big deal in it. It’s something easy to grab if one has focus and is ready to learn.
I kicked off and my first day at work was so cool. I felt at ease and I loved how I could relax and free my mind with all I had to do. Multitasking with my online activities and at the same time attending to my duties while training.
My boss once told me that I should enjoy my free time while it lasts. Because there shall come sometimes when I will work myself out and even feel like running away or maybe regret joining in the very first place. He might have thought I wouldn't get to complete my period there. But I never had the mindset of quitting along the line.

Two months into the training
The workload started to become heavier, my boss had no one except himself, all of his brothers who assisted him already went to school, and his parents were too old to get into all of those things. I felt I was one thing he could depend on. Not sure though. Not until I started.
The very first time we had to count and sport some catfish fingering took us two days back to back to work from morning till night. I was too tired and stressed. At some point, I felt like quitting. But I never did. I was on a countdown of a few days to the end of my training session.
8 months and counting
The training that was to last for 3 months turned around. I realized I still found myself attached to it and I had to help my boss with the workload on him. I knew he might feel my presence if I had to leave. Though I would someday, I should at least keep on rendering my service to him.
There are days when I would sort and count thousands of catfish fingerlings, wash the ponds, and also deliver them to customers. I knew it wouldn’t be something so easy for him to do alone. I did them with nothing in expectation and after everything, I rendered myself ready and available for service anytime he called upon me.

I felt we should make people feel loved as humans. Whatever we do shouldn’t be tagged down on some kind of return or expectation, even don’t expect appreciation. They should be the ones appreciating and being grateful out of their own will. Life goes on and we keep learning every day.
This is my response to the prompt for week 88 edition 1 on the hive learners community and the topic to be discussed is STANDING UP FOR OTHERS.

Awww! You boss must be so lucky to have you. If we all could be this good to one another then I bet we will have lesser problems
Yeah that’s true. And life for us. Thanks for stopping by
I always knew you have a big heart and I love you for that. Sometimes people don't have to tell us they need us before we render to help.
When we see someone in need and we know we can be of help why not? You are doing the right thing and I must commend you for that because it's really not easy to be of help now but you are doing that so happily.
Yeah sis. Many times we just have to do our best and leave the rest. It’s not always about now. I see this life we are living as a stream where we can flow and meet each other anywhere.
And that is just how it is 😊
'Cause karma is my boyfriend
Karma is a god
Karma is the breeze in my hair on the weekend
Karma's a relaxing thought🎵
Karma is real, lol. That's why we should always be kind to others because we don't know what consequences what you could bring to your previous actions. What are those creatures on your thumbnail, btw?
Hehe. You even wrote a poem for karma. Don’t worry it will pay you back some goodies.
And yeah, those creatures are called African catfish. They are reared and bred here in our part of the world
That's not a poem, that's a song from Taylor hahahgaa
Hey man. Nice to see updates from your time at the fish farm. I was starting to wonder what happened with it.
I’m curious though if there might be hazards with your feet in the pond. Say accidentally stepping on and unaliving some of them? This sounds like a silly question (probably is) but I was just wondering if that happens frequently when you walk in there.
Hehe. Thanks man. I just start my own farm recently. Few days ago. And about your question, they will always find their way away from your touch. Especially where these is still some amount of water left in the pond.
Your type is rare these days as most of our youth are to do tedious work. You were a life saver during those moment to your boss.
Yeah. He really appreciated my time with him. And I felt the need to even do more. Thanks for the kind words
Yay! 🤗
