RE: The Old Dog Presents: Testimonial Tuesday Week Two. An Act of Kindness! Share Encourage And Earn!

in #testimonialtuesday7 years ago (edited)

Offcourse it is nice when people out of the blue leave some money on your account because you reacted to a blog and he /she was happy with that. I also had a few acts of financial kindness with thanksgiving! they took me by surprise ! :-)
And that is horrible we only look at how much do we get or give, for that is seen as an act of kindness. And that is true, it is so nice to see a bigger amount than a few cents coming your way.
But an act of kindness does not have to do anything with any material amount.
I think I saw the nicest and compassion full reactions on the post of surpassinggoogle when his mum died. Offcourse there was a load off reward searching people that only reacted with sorry for your loss that also probably just meant well.
But there were a few that described pain, and loss and put so much comfort in their reply that surpassinggoogle must have had some comfort out of it.
It is hard, how can you do something to a whale that will be seen as an act of kindness?
Sending steem or sbd will nearly not been seen to them, and what does it do for kind? Nothing :-( the only thing to show your real interest, is by reaching out for words that will touch their hearts. And that I want to compliment you for!
Whatever contest I have seen you do, I saw nice prizes, but more important you react to everyone! and that feels very rewarding. And must be seen as an act of kindness. Thank you!
