"Pay It Forward and you're already on 
the right track." 
-@TruSuccessXpert


Have you ever thought about the real essence of giving? Or do you give and expect returns? Just like getting the most out of giving.

I heard once from someone these lines:

  • Some people give to those who can pay them back yields limited returns.

  • Some peole give to those who CANNOT pay them back yields invaluable returns.


What does these lines means?

Think of it this way;

Some people throw a party or invite their rich friends to dinner with the expectation that their friends will also invite them back. In that way, they will be repaid. Some people give expensive gifts to friends or relatives because they know that they will receive the same things too. Some people donated money to charitable institutions for the sake of receiving fame and kickbacks. So those kind people are giving to those who can pay them back limited returns.

But is the giving worth it? Maybe for people who always think about money and fame.

However, with others who give a feast and invite the less fortunate people, or give help to people in need wholeheartedly, they feel blessed because they know that those people cannot repay them back. Just like what God said in Luke 14:12-15:

"And you will be blessed because they 
cannot repay you; for you shall be 
repaid at the resurrection of the just." 


Giving is caring, and giving without expecting anything in return is a blessing. Millions of people in this world suffer from poverty, hunger, abuse, severe illnesses, and other unfortunate circumstances, yet many are indulging in their wealth without giving a small glance at those kind of people. Can't they at least give a little help to the less fortunate people?

Some people thought they can't give because they are not rich, they don't have a lot of money, they don't have a huge house and a luxurious car, they don't have fancy foods on their plates, and they don't wear expensive clothes.

Just because you don't have a luxurious life doesn't mean that you can't give. For as long as you are blessed with a comfortable life, then you have the ability to give. And if you are right here, reading this article, that means that you can give, that you are capable to share your blessings.

Because in giving, we light up the dark world of the less fortunate. The world is a dark place for the less fortunate ones, and those who have nothing or little relies on the generosity of the people with a giving spirit. Giving to less fortunate people is like adding their lives, and by adding to theirs, you will feel like you add to yours as well, you feel blessed.

Giving can inspire others. Just like what @TruSuccessXpert has been doing. He gives tips to the Good Karma community to pay it forward to the deserving ones. And part of sharing my blessings to users of this platform, I also give tips to deserving articles and to those who need it the most. We also have @TheRandomRewarder sir MarcDeMesel, the #Club1BCH family, and other generous tippers from this platform who are always sharing their blessings with others, and that inspires them to pay it forward.

And if all people on the receiving end of kindness will pay it forward to others even if they have hardly anything to give, for sure it will make the world a better humane place to live in.

Giving can make us happy and feel blessed. A simple "thank you" from the receiver will make you feel blessed already. And seeing the smile and hope on the faces of the receivers makes the act of giving worthwhile. There is no required amount here. Small coins you have thrown to a beggar on the streets can light up their day and fill up their starving tummy. Even a $0.01 tip can inspire others to pay forward the kindness they have received.

And giving does make a difference. No matter how little or how big you can give, you have the power and the ability to touch the lives of others, and you can inspire them to do things you may never be aware of. Do not think of the amount you can give, think about how you can change someone's life.

There are different forms of giving. You can give your money, your stuff, but you can also give your time, your friendship, a listening ear, and a shoulder to lean on, and of course, you can give spiritually and emotionally.

The Good Karma Academy is just another way of giving forward the small blessings we have received from others. And I am so thankful that this Good Karma Community has been created. I am hoping that humanity will forever exist on this platform and more good people will get on board and will be inspired to help others and do the right things.

Just like @TruSuccessXpert have said, just pay it forward and you are already on the right track.

Let's spread the good karma on this platform. Let's spread the goodness to everyone. There is no room for hates and negativity here..

ONLY L💚VE.

Have a blessed Sunday everyone. 😊

I read this first thing in the morning and found it to be very good! I also notice that I was not in your sponsor list but was sure that I had sponsored you in the past. I will try to get into that sponsor box today, but for the last couple of weeks I haven't been able to sponsor anyone. The website isn't allowing me to do so for some reason. I'm sure it will be fixed sometime soon. Cross Your Finger...lol Thanks for the great article and Have a Wonderful Day!

Sad but true na people only give to those who can give in return. You can see it in relatives, wherein the better off ignores his poor relative yet bigay ng bigay sa mga frens nyang may kaya din..

Kaya khit wla k man maibigay na financial na tulong o material things mas matimbang p din ung moral support, gya din ng sinabi mong emotional at spiritual ksi d un natutumbasan ng khit ano mang bagay.. Its best to give than receive ika nga

Giving is caring. Isang kasabihan na madaling gawin ngunit mangilan ngilan lang nakakaalam ng tunay na kahulugan. Sana nga it will exist forever not only here but i hope it will exist everywhere, especially sa lugar na madaming less fortunate. We need people who know the real meaning of this para mas mapadali pag unlad ng bawat isa ne.😊nice article anyway.😊😊

I badly love this line. Giving to someone that exert their effort doesn't mean that you will be bankrupt. Sometimes, you also need to give something that free at your heart then you will be get Good Karma in return. Maybe sooner or later...

Giving is not giving unless it hurts by mother teresa. I also created an article regarding this, sort of the same thoughts. Its different when someone gives you despite them having less other than someone gives you for a show... Either way would be a blessing to you but its a different return to the givers.

And it also feels good to know that humanity is still alive despite the cruelty of the world. I wish you success with spreading bch awareness :)
