Sometimes when people hear the word "giving back", they think it has to be something very big or expensive. But the truth is, giving doesn’t always mean money or big gifts. In my own small way, I’ve come to understand that even the little things we do for others can make a big difference.
I’m the kind of person that believes in showing up for people, especially when they don’t expect it. There are days I may not have so much, but I always try to give what I can,maybe time, maybe advice, or just listening to someone when they are going through hard time. I’ve learned that sometimes, people are not looking for money, they just want someone to
One way I give back is by helping people who are just starting in the digital space. Since I’ve been in the creative and tech world for a while now, I use the little experience I have to guide people that are trying to grow in areas like design, content creation or digital marketing. I may not be an expert, but when someone asks me for help, I always try my best to explain or show them resources that helped me too.
Also, I try to encourage young girls especially, to believe in their talents and not give up because they feel tech is only for men. If someone had encouraged me earlier, maybe I would have started some things sooner. So now, I try to be that person I didn’t have back then for someone else.
In my offline life too, I support a few small causes around me. For example, there's a school close to my area where some of the kids don’t have basic school supplies. Once in a while, I donate books, pens, or snacks just something small to help. I don’t always post it online, because I’m not doing it for praise. I just believe that if we all help even one person, the world will be better.
Even on Hive, I try to give back by supporting posts I like, dropping comments to encourage others, and sharing knowledge in areas I understand. Hive itself has taught me that giving back is not always about what you have in your wallet it’s also about what you have in your heart.
At the end of the day, I believe that giving back is a mindset. You don’t need to be rich. You just need to be kind and willing to help someone. Whether it’s sharing a post, teaching someone, donating small things, or even just checking up on a frien it all that counts.
I hope to do more as I grow, but for now, I’m grateful for the little I can do. Because no act of kindness is ever too small.
With love
