The Best Feeling You Can Have! Introducing Activity Gifts!
There is one feeling which is, in my opinion, the best you can get.
To explain it a bit better I have to go back a little bit.
You have to know that my parents didn't have it easy as African immigrants. This counts of course not only for African immigrants I believe it is a challenge for any ethnic group of people coming in a different country for several reasons.
But my parents fought to achieve a "normal" life. To enable my sister and I a good life.
With 17 years I signed my first professional contract. It was a great feeling for me to know that I am earning money now with that what I love. I think there is nothing better than earning money through your passion. For me as a believer its grace.
But this is not the feeling I mean!
I will come to that in a second.
With my possibilities, I was able to support my family a bit.
And I did that in a way my mother didn't see coming. She was everytime so happy when she discovered my gifts.
That's the feeling I am talking about guys.
I am someone who likes surprises. Of course good surprises.
When you don't count on them, and they come; Damn amazing!
I love that feeling! Imagine you are waiting for something it seems that the job you wanted is given to another person, you don't expect the good thing anymore. But then, it comes from a direction you never expected. Your heart jumps, and you just want to make a loud scream.
I was scrolling through comments of my last posts.
And I often see the same people over and over again which I really appreciate.
You remember when I told you that I was thinking to reward myself after becoming football champion with Redbull Salzburg in Austria?
I was also thinking how I can also make something good for others here on this platform.
It's not that I will start from today on, no, I already started, but I will do it now more aware.
What does it exactly mean?
I will review the profiles from the most engaging people on my posts, and when I don't upvote them myself I will feed a bot to make its thing ;)
I hope with that to produce some unexpected happy faces.
Yes, I will not see your faces, but the imagination is satisfying enough.
Wish you all a lovely Sunday.
Very nice motivating post and I agree a lot . One of my favorite famous people is Winston Churchill and I like his quote;
"We make a living by what we get. We make a life by what we give."
You can buy all material things in the world, but love and kindness can only be given- that is the beauty of life !
True words my friend :) True words!
Very very motivating post ,everybody has a history and it sounds good when it is a positive history.
For you thinking to reward your followed shows you have your follower at heart and the Good Lord will always reward you back , you have been doing that from day one and God will not keep mute in anything that concerns you.
Thanks Good friend for this altruistic behaviour .
Oh man, what a comment.
I mention something that really touched me and I hope you will be right.
Because right now it feels that this god is mute to me :(
Reading that gives me a bit hope again. Thank you for that.
Always welcome brother
Yes i know this feeling quite well, until i grew up before i unlocked the secret behind not expecting or waiting for surprises. Now i love them so much more
This is grace my manz, and it takes courage to do what one loves. Im happy for you, i hope for you more strength and grace. I enjoy engaging with your content my manz, i look forward to also watching you play live!!! Lol cheers
Steemit is a venue for interaction and engagement with people around the world. The best feeling is also gaining genuine friendship from people whom you don't know personally but you've developed a special bond.
Thank you very much @modernpastor, I am happy to see you visited my post! I greatly appreciate it! That is really an amazing surprise!😄❤
I couldn't explain it better than you did.
Its exactly like that :)
Thank you @modernpastor!😄❤
Hi @modernpastor, lol you're the 2nd person i followed....am new on the platform though.
It's a nice inspirational post to start the day, it's actually nice to meet an african here. I'm from Nigeria so....what about you?
Happy sunday.
Welcome to Steemit dear. :)
Great that you are here.
I wish you a pleasant and successful time here on this platform.
I am born in Germany my roots are from Congo.
nice to meet you too, i'll check out your blog daily.
Awww this is so touching to me, few would only thought about what you’re doing now.
I like surprises myself and of course good surprises. It takes the good and kind hearted to think this through, making people smile is what I do in my little way . You’re much appreciated my friend
Thank you, my friend :)
Empowering to hear that ^^
You’re welcome, I look forward to earning through my passion too. Music it is
Music? So, a real musician? :)
Yeah I sing and I record all my songs on my phone home as I can’t afford a studio quality for now . I have my songs on my blog . Recently I made a post containing all the sound cloud links of all the song I made since January, the ones that I’ve actually uploaded. I love reggae riddim and that’s my style , trying to create some African riddim
This sounds interesting, I have to check out your blog :)
By just sharing this inspirational post is a gift enough. You can imagine the impact it could have if every one on Steemit read it and shared with two of their friends! The best gift on mothers day for me.
Wooow, thank you for your kind words. And also that you see it that way. :)
I appreciate it.
I actually wish you could see my face my friend. It is happy and bright like the sun.
It is really satisfying as a young man to earn money from what you like to do. With this it is no longer work because it is mingling with passion.
You always makes something good for ‘us’, the readers. Come to think of you wanting to do more is really nice. You’re a good man.
Thanks for your kind comment :) It flatters me to hear that.
Thank you as always my friend
Wo wir wieder bei dem "ES GIBT NICHTS GUTES, ES SEI DENN DU TUST ES" wären ;)
Es sind die Kleinigkeiten die das Leben zu einem besseren verändern
Oh ja ^^
Du, das mit dem Trikot gehen wir nach der Saison an in Orndung :)
Die läuft noch zwei Wochen und dann endlich Urlaub :)
Tu Dir nur die ruhe an, ich habe es bisher geschafft ich werde auch noch 2,3,4 Wochen schaffen ;)
Die Kleinigkeiten sind in diesem Fall zum Beispiel das Du es nicht vergessen hast ;)
Die Kleinigkeiten sind es das ich im hintergrund nie aufgegeben habe eines zu ergattern.
Die kleinigkeiten sind es das ich Fan eines anderen Vereins bin doch die Leistung zu würdigen weiss die Du dort auf den Platz und wenn man dir so zuhört/liest auch drum herum Leistest.
Ich mag Steemit sehr weil es eben viele Kleinigkeiten schafft zu bündeln, hier kann jeder der sich wirklich einsetzt etwas schaffen... Der eine Setzt ein wenig Geld ein und macht mehr draus , der andere creirt Content und macht auch was draus, wieder ein anderer Versucht mit Copy und Paste sich vorran zu bringen. Okay letzteres ist nicht so schön , aber das zeigt eben genau unsere Welt .... die einen Investieren, die anderen machen und andere versuchen einfach zu klaun :D
Steemit und seine Blockchain möglichkeiten bietem jedem einen platz sei es direkt auf Steemit oder eben auf DTUBE,DLIVE oder gar DPORN :D
Eine Chance für jeden und deswegen hebt es sich so von allem bisher dagewesenen ab... Da wollten immer andere sich bereichern, okay hier auch noch aber es gibt eben etwas vom Kuchen ab.... Auch wenn einige vergessen haben was es heisst die KOSTENFREIEN optionen voll aus zu schöpfen... Ja ein REPLY ist eigentlich Kostenfrei und würdigt oftmal den Ersteller eines Post´s mehr als die 1,2,3,5 Cent die man vllt über das Upvote gibt. Eben so ist es doch mit dem Resteem , auch frei und wird dennoch so selten genutzt. Alles Kleinigkeiten, aber die Meisten haben diese Kleinigkeiten an BOTS verkauft, ich hoffe das sich das wieder ändern wird, ich für mich gehe da gern vorran und nutze diese optionen sehr gern ;) Die kleinigkeiten eben ;)
Ich wünsche Dir einen schönen Urlaub und freue mich schon auf was da kommen mag und besonders das du dann auch wieder Verletzungsfrei in die Neue gehen kannst ;)
That's really nice of you, even this post alone is kind of a surprise that you are willing to go so far to reward your followers.
I hope this will not eat away too much from your spare time so you can make a tradition out of it :)
Don't worry I can handle it :)
But thank you for your concerns ^^
