Appreciation is in the form of words worth millions of dollars. You would never see what the little demonstration of showing other people means in their lives. It is important to show your kindness to someone who has helped you in your life. But the pride in us always makes us walk away; it is not a necessity to show that respect.
One cannot underrate the showing of appreciation, be it through words or materials. This is a good habit for good people. People always think they are smart, convincing other people to their benefit without showing appreciation to them. One may turn out to be a fool for you to rip your benefit, and it is going to end with extending their helping hand to you. It is important to show respect, as it would help to create interpersonal relationships between people.
Appreciation helps us gain our respect back. It is important to appreciate the work of others, no matter their status in society. This is a scenario of a hive and a steem. Steem was a platform where we were introduced as a Web 3 platform. We did not know much about hives until society respected no one and showed no appreciation for people's platforms. Now I see this platform as a stranded community and as a hosted website, not a Web 3 platform.
Later, many were introduced to hives. Thank you, Hive, for creating that supportive and decentralized platform to stand among the Web 3 platforms. False accusations were being made to users on Hive and were disclaimed later.
Steem did not appreciate the little support of their users by creating vibrant communities and activities on the platform. The selfish interests of the individual led them to this terrible situation. It is always good to show appreciation, no matter who you are in society. Lack of appreciation would make you deprive yourself like steem coins. thank you.
