Hi guys, I hope you have enough time to rest & enjoy the weekend night with your great family, I know you have done many great things in your life that will have a positive impact today and the following days on the environment and and keep turning like that , smile when you have done one great thing so that you get the enthusiasm to do the second.
I'm sure many of us hope someone gives us compliments, I believe it still happens in the world & is not influenced by culture at all, meaning that in any culture someone definitely hopes to get praise from someone else, is this attitude too much? ? in our belief; if we hope for praise & hope too much then it is considered excessive and even prohibited, so hoping for praise is still fine but not allowed if we hope too much.
everyone must be very happy when they get praise or appreciation for everything they have done, but for those of us who live life at a certain spiritual level, praise is not always beautiful, sometimes praise does not always bring happiness but the opposite will happen, because of that for those of us who study the spiritual world to avoid the feeling of wanting to get praise, but we are asked to continue to increase the feeling of sincerity when doing something, I know you will find it a little difficult to understand this.
but as normal human beings, what exactly is proper praise for us? this is interesting and the following explanation;
- Thank you
When we have the opportunity to help or do something that has a positive impact on other people, then someone can say "Thanks" to us, and we have considered these magic words as praise, we feel very happy when someone we help says thank you, it's simple but awesome for us.
and to say the word "thank you" we do not expect at all, but that is only limited to respect, praise, or appreciation that can be given by someone else, we have no intentions of the dust in our hearts to get these words, someone has the right say it or not, it's all personal so we do our part to the best of our ability.
Maybe you ask why we consider the word "thank you" as a compliment? yeah if you have ever watched a video that talks about the word "thank you" then you will automatically know the great power behind the word "thank you". in our religion it is recommended to always be grateful for all circumstances, and words of thanks are part of the expression of gratitude among human beings, and of course we believe if someone is able to express gratitude for something they get through our hands then indirectly a blessing next will come to our neighborhood, (this is just a belief).
when we make "thank you" as an award, the return of services from someone we have helped is no longer a priority, meaning that we have freed ourselves from uncertain expectations, so the word "thank you" has saved us from torture of hope.
If you go to a Muslim country you will find some people who say "Alhamdulillah" when they get something, "Alhamdulillah" if taken broadly means "thank you", but here a Muslim is thanking his God, and the sentence can only be allocated to God not to fellow human beings.
- Smile
We cannot get praise in the form of words forever, so we are not allowed to be stuck there, for example someone is frustrated with life's difficulties, then we come like the goddess of fortune who brings a little food for their life needs and they can only smile at their kindness and their smiles are the greatest compliment to us.
for another example, on your way you come across a cat or dog who is seriously injured, you stop the vehicle to pick them up and then buy some medicine & other necessities, are you going to wait for the cat or dog to say thank you? of course not, the animal will show a cute face that seems to smile at your kindness, and that's the big compliment you get from creatures. you will become someone of value even if you do not tell others of your kindness.
on the other hand, if today i write some post on hive and happen to be useful for other people, i'm really happy and consider that the biggest achievement and the "feeling of joy" i have is "praise from the universe for me" , here I'm not limiting myself to applause as a compliment, please don't do it that's not a compliment at all.
since being active on hive i have written hundreds of posts but there was one posted on Discord channel ecency, i found the post useful and placement there is a compliment, but in no way did i expect someone to do it for me, but placement of my posts on the discord channel is the biggest award that has been given to me "THANKS VERY MUCH".
on the other hand I have also written several posts on Hive-learners and some of them have been said to be good by mods, and that is also the biggest compliment for me, "THANKS VERY MUCH".
we can conclude that, a compliment can be in the form of words, attention & attitude, so if you have got one of them then you have got a compliment, if today you write in Hive & someone's commenting "Nice post" then you actually have received a compliment for your hard work , while an upvote is a bonus for your achievement, so enjoy every second of your life, do the best for yourself, your family, your environment & everyone in the world, then believe me you will get praise from God & the universe and it will be the biggest blessing in your life.
so for me, every word that someone says to me is a compliment, some time ago I was also called an "idiot" and I also took it as a compliment, but the compliment came from an unscrupulous person so I understand, I managed to enjoy life because I consider everything around me to be a compliment, so every day I am excited about living life because praise is everywhere.
if today you do something and expect someone to say "You are great", stop because you will suffer, do your part with enthusiasm and forget the nonsense that you take as a compliment, if compared to a compliment like water then you don't have to expect much because of him will come by itself when the time comes, everything needs a process, as well as praise, keep living life with enthusiasm & respect, while praise is a bonus from the universe.
thank you very much for visiting my blog, here's a little review about a great topic hosted by Hive-learners, see you all in the next post with a different topic.
