What do you understand by the word hospitality?

To me Hospitality is the act of kindness, generosity expressed by an individual. Hospitality is a way of showcasing the real picture of yourself in an appreciative manner. Notwithstanding, hospitality is also a primary medium for exchanging cynicism with happiness.

For instance, pasting happiness in someone's face is a way of easing away the person's cynicism. There are people out there that do not have what to eat, and so when you tend to show them love, you are indirectly picking off their bitterness (cynicism) and replacing them with happiness.

In the world where sometimes the "helper" becomes a "victim," should we still show hospitality? What's your take? Explain

My take is biblical. From my little research and blogging, I've come to realize that naturally one cannot satisfy human being. Infact, humans are the most complex and mis-calculated beings on earth. I'm going to use myself here as a perfect picture for others to learn. I could remember three years ago when I newly gained admission into University. I chose to play a positive part of my life—showing hospitality as if I was one of the rich kids.

I would spent my entire bills on certain unknown individuals, thinking they were truly grateful beings. Until I got fed up with challenges and I decided to center my attention on resolving the challenges. They thought I had forgotten them, and then start repaying me with evil. Everybody in the school lately became alerted that I was using their star to gain more money. I was shocked! For God sake, this are people I showed hospitality, gave them full love irrespective of the storms, pressures and personal encounters.

But because I failed to keep playing the game as usual, they switch from been the kind of persons I had known to something wild. To an extent that I was setup, and I almost lost everything I had. This would have melted my hearts not to consider helping anyone again. But, there is this joy that keeps panting within me, and whenever I display that kind of ritual, I'm left overly blessed. So, I kept on doing what gives me the Ever-lasting joy.

Note: No matter how hard and bad they tried to mute my enthusiastic role in changing lives, I never quit. That should be your last approach. Keep facing the good role. Even if 10% are twisted, you'll have 1% to back you up.

Have you ever received unforgettable hospitality from someone? How was it? And why is it unforgettable?

I called it unforgettable because it actually came from someone I didn't expect. Infact, during my time of offer, I only give out to this person in particular by mistake. It wasn't intentional. But out of the people I sacrificed myself to help, thinking they were the real one, none ever came back saying thankyou, only this one. That alone never mute my hearts. Whenever I look at the testimony of this one person, there's a deep push in my spirit to never relents.

Do you consider yourself a hospitable person ? State instances

Yes. I started seeing the picture of my real self displaying vividly immediately I left primary school. I just grew up been a giver. I could imagine myself going for programs, be it church, school or whatever, and then if food is shared as item 7, I won't portray the habit of others. The way that food is been package is the same way that food will get to my household and everybody will then bless it and eat it.

I always feel bad and blamed if I fail to help. So, whenever I have the opportunity or even when I don't have, I create room to give. Therefore, giving isy habit. I love it and I do not want to cease from it.

When showing hospitality to people, how should it be done? Tell us

There's an approach I captured from the Bible and it's been helping.

  • Do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing. Whenever I give, I do it secretly, even if others are there, I will present it in a way someone will not know it's a gift, but left to the reciever, there's a push from my end that something golden is released.
  • Do not announce the person's name on stage. Instead, call the person to private and give the person whatever you have to offer.

MOD 1 Comment/Recommendation:
Kind of a bitter experience though. I've derived a lot of lessons from the bible of men who showed hospitality. In life, I've experienced ingrates but don't really take it personal to avoid beefs. Thanks for sharing. Best of luck.
