RE: My Promo-Mentors Writing Challenge | Having a generous heart

in #psychology6 years ago

It is amazing the influence that anyone can have on us, particularly those of the female persuasion. I would count my paternal grandmother, my mother and my wife all in that category of having some life sustaining and life changing influence on me.

Life has a way of taking the innocent child we start out as, the one who is generally happy and giving, and turning them into something that they weren't meant to be. But then, the opportunities to find their way back to happiness and giving appear, often in the form of others, and those who take the opportunities find themselves coming full circle.

Humility and generosity go hand in hand Mav. It doesn't matter where we start out, only how we progress along the journey and where we ultimately end up. If we are like a child in our teachability and humility, while wise in our decision making and in our behaviors, then we are making the progress we should make as human beings, and making the world around us a better place.

Dang @glenalbrethsen, I've said it before, and I'll say it again... here you are, once more. I should just follow you around!

Be my guest, but it'll be like riding a turtle the long way around. :)

I actually need someone who I can follow. I've tried to keep up with someone else a time or two and I just couldn't come up with anything to say where they could. Still looking for my niche. :)

I do like the folks over at @tribesteemup but visit other groups too. I'm going through those who post there and selecting ones I'd like to develop relationships with. But I imagine what I'll find is you and @positivesynergy commenting up a storm! Maybe @taskmaster4450 also.

I didn't even know there was a tribesteemup until either you or taskmaster4450 mentioned. There's probably only so much positivity I can stand though. :) Okay, just kidding, I can take more.

I have seem TM talk about tribesteemup lately and saw that it has a huge delegation.

It is looking like a good Community.

Amazing comment Glen and often times life and circumstances changed our child-like wonder and kindness as society teaches us to take life with a grain of salt and some level of cynicism.

It is when we rediscover that life is good and makes us believe in the good of humanity that it becomes a great thing to witness.

My journey in Steemit has shown me how people are awesome and helping other people without expecting anything in return.
