Hi, Alivers!
ATTENTION, I HAVE CHANGED THE CONDITIONS!
Today is the happy 20th week of my initiative.
This love is coming back in larger and larger amounts each week. And since today is the 20th week, I want to give away a little more than usual this week. That's why it's +2 today. I dream of when it will be +100, to be honest!
I want to talk about empathy today. I very often stop when I feel like someone needs help. In fact, I don't see how it could be any other way. Sometimes it gets sad when I can't do anything to help. Only to listen. Even though that can be enough or exactly what is needed... But the truth is, it's not enough for ME.
Such is the case with this giveaway.
I want to get involved in helping everyone. Realizing that it's not possible can drive you crazy at times. This is our reality, but I will always look for options and go against the tide at times. Until the tide follows me. And it will! Sooner or later.
It doesn't matter how much effort or time it takes. Let it be my own mission.
What is empathy to you? Have you thought about this feeling at all? Perhaps there's a story about it?
This, as always, is very important to me. So this is the question and condition of today!
I will, as always, end my thoughts at the end of this post. Now to business!
Goal
As I wrote in the first post Giveaway of Gratitude. 5 HSBI. CLOSED!, I give every day and want to take it to Hive! The purpose of this next giveaway is to give back to Hive and its members my share of appreciation and love! This is a gratuitous giveaway. That is, if the payout for this post is 5.01 Hive, I will give away 6 HSBI! The only thing I get is your love and part of the Hive SBI (that's how HSBI works).
What is HSBI
HSBI is a social experiment that has grown into something bigger. I have read many posts and other information about it. In my opinion, it is worthy of both Hive and this world in general! If you don't already know what HSBI (Hive SBI) is, read this post: Hive SBI
Why am I leaning specifically toward HSBI? Because this value that I give away also stays at Hive. It also shows my love for this blockchain and everyone involved!
Rules
- Answer the giveaway question or voice your opinion against it if you feel that way. Just do it in more than 2 words!
- Wait 7 days from the time the post is published.
- Bots and multi-accounts are not participating and will be tracked manually by me. That's what the 7 days are for.
- The five winners will each receive 1 HSBI.
- One participant I choose will receive 1 HSBI personally from me! I will publish the reasons in my next post.
It's simple, isn't it? If it is, then go for it! I'd love to see your love for the entire Hive community!
Past giveaway winners:
@ flaxz.alive, @ thebighigg, @ dayadam, @ marilour, @ vaynard86
+2 @ osomar357, @ almajandra
Congratulations, guys!
There are only 9 participants left this week, out of the 40-plus I've tagged previous participants. And you know, I'm even happy to give almost 100 of my gratitude to those who are here for Hive! Or for the people inside Hive.
It was my friend at Hive @ dayadam's birthday this week. Congratulations, honey! Daya, I'm happy to see the smile on your face endlessly!
I also finally noticed one person here who not only participates in my giveaway, but lives the life I actually dream about. Kalu Orji Samuel (@ sammyhive), the idea for this post actually came from your act! Thank you, brother!
And I really liked the phrase in @ osomar357's response:
Do good and don't look at who
That's exactly what I usually do! Thanks buddy, I really remembered that, use and appreciate your input!
All the appreciation awards were sent out about 1 hour ago. I received my HSBI portion for last week and still waiting for this week. Here are my current HSBI figures ⬇️
Conclusion
Lately I've been seeing more empathy in animals than in humans.
Are we at the stage of evolution where it matters less than it does for other species?
I think this question is worth a separate post, thought, and time.
I suggest we just think about it at our leisure...
That's all for now! Hive ON! Hive Five! We Are Alive!
