In life there are many unforgettable experience or events to people. To some, when they win a remarkable present become the most cherished moment. To others still, a simple gift can be most cherished. Talking about gift, what is the criteria to measure the value of a gift? I have seen some persons talk about the monetary value of a gift as it's value. There are others who consider a lot of other factors before attaching a value to a gift.
Anyway for me, the value of a gift or present to me encompasses a whole lot of things. For instance, how do you view a simple gift of a pack of crayons from a little child? I guess lovely, unless you don't enjoy the company of little children. Now, what if same pack of crayon is gifted to you by an adult friend? I guess funny, if not weird.
What if you are in dire need of Crayons for a quick project and coincidentally an adult friend presents a pack of Crayons to you at that moment, will it still seem funny or Cherished? I will guess CHERISHED. Going by the scenario, I most times attach value to a gift or moment by the need it satisfies and not just the monetary value. The generosity of the giver(s) usually melts my heart. Hence, I tend to appreciate a gift considering a lot of factors.
So far So Good
My most cherished moment on Steemit so far can not be complete without acknowledging the generosity and love of a lot of individuals here. However, as part of my 100 days contest topics, I will like to be specific. Yes, I promised to write a post on the 3 topics I requested the contestants in the contest I hosted a couple of weeks ago, and this is the last among the three topics.

Blown Away

I have heard people talk about being "swept off their foot" before. I have looked for such opportunities to be swept off my feet. At least, I will have experience of the meaning of such expression no matter how dangerous it sounds. Little did I know that I needed to be mindful of what I wish for, because I may just get it. But did I get it? No, I didn't because my wish has been to get a bank that will give me a loan and leave me alone. Lol, I am kidding. I didn't get swept off my feet, I got something bigger than that. I was simply BLOWN AWAY.
I can never fully express the feelings I had then because even Wikipedia and google combined lack the proper expression for such feeling. The experience is ever Green in my little mind. I know you will like me to stop beating about the bush and get to the fact. OK, I will do that but you need to help me by reading it yourself. MY MOST CHERISHED MOMENT ON STEEMIT SO FAR. Please go take a look at it and I'm sure you will have a new definition to the word gift. However, this post will not be complete without me giving you a hint of the Awesome individuals that has contributed hugely to my Steemit experience.
The above mentioned individuals made this post possible and I had to dig up one of my pics that hides my shy eyes with my smiling face. I can never thank them enough. They are among my first 11 team on Steemit. Go check them out, I will be melting a heart among them in my next post. Can you guess who among them? I will like to know your thoughts.
