What Giving is About
I ever wrote in my facebook status once, "I don't wanna be remembered because of my kindness, I wanna be remembered because of my influential attitudes that help those to have a positive change in their life."
We all know one classic thing, happiness is when we're able to give those who need, in that case happiness will seem to be doubled by feeling the happy atmosphere around us. When I was a kid my teacher and my parents didn't stop trying to make me a good kid, well I believe that every parents act the same way tho. The point is that, being kind is yet to be one of the most essential part of moral learning. But at that time, when I was still a little kid I never knew what was the bliss behind the wisdom. As I grew older, as I met a lot of people and did a huge amount of stuffs, I set the bar of an understanding. Giving is not about losing something that we have, but it's more about earning the additional value, the virtue. It's one of the self-fulfillment and also a chance to look back at what we have done. For me personally, giving is not something I should do but it is something that I need to do.
But in my definition of giving is not always about money or material things that have a price tag on 'em. I will gladly admit that giving is more about positive attitude. Sometimes I just wish there are people who I could lean on to, who could share his/her ups and downs. That is why I wanna be someone in the same way.
I'm not a philosopher, I'm not Jengiz Han nor Martin Luther King Jr. nor Oprah Winfrey. I don't do a big influence to an enormous human race. Yet deep in my heart I want to go step forward with those people around me. I never want to go alone and leave people behind.
So yes, this is my philosophy of giving and receiving. :)
