Gems From Steemland

Another round of the upvote airdrop is finished. Today was a rather long day for me but I still managed to curate a good amount of posts. I commend all of you who continue to contribute to this platform through your posts or your comments. Now I want to jump right into sharing some of the thought provoking or insightful material I came across.

Beggar who has the talent,Eaten by the idea of easy money By: @kimaben

This is a situation many of us find ourselves in. To give to a beggar or not to give. Some say we should give to them regardless and others may disagree. Do you think beggars should be helped or no? That is the topic at hand in the post above.

Once again I want to thank those who continue to work their butts off to try and add value to this community. We are building something special here. I'm having fun doing it and I hope you are as well. I did my best to get to as many posts as possible before my body started sending me the "chill out" signals. Hopefully you take something out of one or more of these posts. It feels good to be able to help others get their work noticed and of course the Art Of Reciprocity continues.

Which topic interested you the most?

Hey @humanearl this is my entry for your quetion...
Which topic interested you the most?...

There are so many, the list could go on! But some in particular are as follows:

Art—I have always had an interest in the world of art, from random streaks of paint to the most detailed Da Vinci collections. I am often fascinated in the stories BEHIND the actual artwork, what had motivated the person to produce such work and if it had any correlation to their feelings. This is because I personally practice art in many forms, from painting to henna and even art in its written form. I am often inspired from personal experiences, so it is sometimes calming to know that there are others who express themselves the same way.
Religion—I know this is an absolute taboo topic for many people get offended when one doesn't agree with their religious beliefs. However, I believe it is important to talk and intellectually debate about one’s personal religion. I find it even more important to question religion, even if I am religious myself. As long as one doesn't impose their beliefs on someone else (including myself) I don't see why two or more individuals can’t have a decent conversation on such a fascinating subject.
Psychology—this subject has interested me for many years. Although I haven't formally studied it during my school or university years, I still find the human brain and behaviour interesting. I love finding links between a person’s mind/thinking and the way they behave as a consequence. It helps me understand some people that I may not like. For example, a racist individual may not know any better than what s/he has been taught, so I find most often that it is not worth my time trying to fire up an interesting debate with them. I have also learned much about signals that people give off, and try to think about situations from their point of view. This is also especially useful whenever I write novels or poetry.
Cultures—I absolutely adore learning about other cultures. It is one of the best things to talk about. I love knowing about a country’s traditional clothing, food and language. What I really love the most is that people suddenly light up when they're asked about their background. It is said in a manner of interest, rather than hate that is spread so easily nowadays. It is important to embrace cultures and for people to be proud of it (within limits of course) and the reaction that I get when I ask is always what gives me the biggest satisfaction.

I could literally go on and list many, many more topics that interest me to no end, but as a general overview—any topic that challenges my way of thinking in a positive manner and helps me grow as an individual, is always something that will fascinate me!

Thanks sir...

I am grateful for your courtesy visit of my first humble blog on this amazing platform. My happiness is beyond expression when I saw your comment on my blog.

And this is even more surprising for me that you mentioned my blog. It's really an honor for me that you mentioned me in your blog.

It's an appreciation with much energy and hope that will be like a propulsion force which keep the jet engine going. I hope all my fellows mentioned above would be feeling like the same. And I wish good luck to all of those who would be lucky souls to be visited by you.

Thank You so much @humanearl for this act of kindness and love.
