Why do we help others? Is it for fame? To have sympathy or show mercy for? Or an act of kindness by sharing the blessings we received?
Giving help is an essential part of humanity. Some people though give help to others for the sake of getting fame, more benefits, and higher returns. Those people are wearing smiley faces to mask their real identities and motives. They will offer their helping hands in times of tribulations but will drop you off on a cliff once they reap their real intentions. Some will give help but will expect something in return. Others will show their support but will complain about it later.
Are those really the reasons for giving help to others?
As the quote said,
The idea of this quote is not just applicable to charities, businesses, and other institutions, but in all aspects of life. In fact, it can also be applied to a community. Some people and other organizations or institutions that are helping others are sometimes just focused on their intentions and giving less importance to the small act of kindness.
But the truth is, it is the small act of kindness that matters the most not the grandest intention, nor the huge amount of help.

And it resonated with some thoughts about the recent feud on this platform.
Is it really necessary to give back to the community?
The giving of help to others is not really mandatory or necessary. Because we are not obliged to help everyone or to do anything. It is always our will to lend a helping hand. And there is always a reason why we are helping others.
However, do we always need to have a valid reason or to have too much in life to be capable of giving help to others? Even the poorest of the poor are also capable to give help to others. Because there are many ways to execute it.
Let me ask you, how much Bitcoin Cash do you have in your wallet before you stepped on this platform? And how much Bitcoin Cash do you have now in your wallet? How often do you receive upvotes from the bot and the readers? And how Bitcoin Cash changed your life?
Many of us only learned about Bitcoin Cash inside this platform. And many of us here have accomplished many things in our lives because of this little giant.
Some built their own house and purchased their own car because of Bitcoin Cash. Some use BCH to support their families financially while others use BCH for their studies. And for some, BCH has been a huge help for their medical needs.
This pandemic has affected our lives and negativity and fear are widespread and created more drawbacks in this world. And what's more affected is our financial vitality. That is the reason why many of us entered this crypto world to suffice our needs. For some, blogging is not their forte but tried to adopt this skill because living jobless won't help them survive from this deadly pandemic epoch.
Now let me ask you again, is it really difficult to give back to the community that helped you survived in your daily lives?
Giving isn't mandatory here, however, is giving a small help can really cause a huge defect in your pocket bigger than what you got from this community?
The amount doesn't matter, it's the thought that counts. That's what MJ replied to my comment in her article.
I never like being beholden to anyone but ever since I stepped foot on this platform, I ate what I've said as I owe this community a lot. And giving back to the community is my only way to show my appreciation and gratitude for everything I've got from this community.
The amount of help doesn't matter, because those small cents of ours are already a huge help for others and to this community.
Every single cent counts!
Every time I spend cents for others, I only give them to the deserving ones. Some are earning much but not even sharing anything with this community. I understand that we all have our priorities and necessary needs to deal with, and some users solely depend on their earnings from this platform. However, if your article is earning more or less $10, is it really hard to give back at least $0.01?
I appreciate more those who are not earning that much but trying to give back to the community to show their gratitude and to support others as well. Many users here are also depending on this platform like the breadwinners, parents, and students, but, being greedy is not on their side and they are still trying to give back to this community despite the priorities they have in their lives.
If you can buy expensive things because of Bitcoin Cash, is it really hard to give back cents to the community?
It may not be mandatory to give back to this community, but just think of the things and opportunities that Bitcoin Cash has given to you.
It is the same thought why we are paying back the sacrifices our parents made for us. We are not obliged to do it, but because we owe them a lot, we owe them our lives, even if they don't tell us to do such a thing, we are still willing to pay them back the sacrifices they have made for us.
So if you are really grateful to this platform, even if no one tells you to do a certain thing, you are willing to give back to the community.
We may not have the capability to help everyone, but everyone can help someone, and everyone can make a change to this community.
Every small help means a lot because every single cent you send is a huge help to the BCH chain. And that small cent if accumulated will grow bigger over time. And who will benefit the most from the success of Bitcoin Cash? It is still us, the people inside this community.
You might think that your small cents can't change the whole BCH community, however, your small cents can change the world for someone. We all have a common denominator of why we are here, and that is to earn Bitcoin Cash. We want to earn for some reason. We want to earn more to help our family. We want to save more BCH to achieve our goals.
All are possible because of Bitcoin Cash. If BCH is helping us, why can't we help back BCH as well?
There are many ways to give back to the community. You can check @Eybyoung and @bmjc98 about their ways of giving back to this community.
Aside from giving upvotes, you can also give back to the community through sponsorships, giveaways, and most importantly, promoting Bitcoin Cash and onboarding more users into this platform.
The amount doesn't matter, it's the thought that counts!
Thanks for your time.
Yohoo! Finally, I got to read this. Sorry for being soo late. And you nailed this one, as always! You are absolutely right from top to bottom!
You don't need to be a zillionaire (is that even a word?) to help someone. A little amount can make a huge difference to someone who doesn't have anything at all. So if you earn enough, then there's no reason for you not to share.
It's not mandatory, but c'mon! Learn to give back to the community that helped you earn a decent amount of BCH every day. :)
