The answer is YES ...

Hello Friends steemians! Today I want to talk with you, the few that can read me in this immense sea, of something that has hovered in my head for many days ... Are there altruistic users in Steemit?

First let's talk about Altruism, What is it?

Serve others constructively, to live an experience of empathy.
Personal sacrifice for the benefit of others.
According to the Royal Spanish Academy, altruism comes from the French altruism and designates the "diligence in procuring the good of others even at the expense of one's own".
The term altruism refers to human behavior and is defined as the concern or disinterested attention by the other or the others, as opposed to selfishness. There are usually different points of view about the meaning and scope of altruism.

Well now I tell you that just as there are accounts that are selflessly dedicated to help grow the small fish that swim here without expecting anything in return ... that is solidarity with the friend who has just started in this community, give a vote for its good content it encourages you to keep going, but we must understand that this community is immense as a sea and God. Thank you it is growing.

Some, for example, make contests to help their water mates grow, what do they earn? Others and like that account there are several so-called healing teams ... if those as @cervantes who give their votes a certain amount of daily post and even then we complain because they do not vote us, and then we surrender ... Well, let's say @cervantes Does he win all this? Accounts like these help us small fish in this immense sea to become dolphins and whales ...

You just have to be grateful, there is a particular group that I belong to that is called #steemfamilyhi that team is led by the teacher @lanzjoseg the is for my way of thinking is an altruistic person, he in his account every day prepares a post for support small users and not so much to keep growing, he to my way of seeing supports everyone over his personal interests within the group, what he does is help us selflessly, at least he has not asked me to "vote here and I will return the vote "(unless it is a contest) the votes of your account for me are also important, this is a small tribute teacher ... go ahead and infinite thanks and blessings for all that contributes to #steemfamilyhi.

Let us be less selfish and think that those accounts that help us grow than with their contests or healings and get those much desired SBD, without knowing if they get any profit from this they do for us, just be grateful, being grateful is also important!

Note: Just like these users that I name here, there are many more in this ocean, but these two are the ones that I read and participate the most.
