is my fave English word. Actually, as I gamer (and also a thinker) I understood this thing about myself a long ago: I love achieves, love the harsh challenges, and love to play certain videogames that suggest hard stealth walk-throughs, long quests or tricky missions, stuff like this -- which pay off in rare awards. 'Well-done' or 'mission completed' go along with it naturally.

I invite @datych, @irchen and @may2015 to this post.


PS. would be nice to contribute to this community which I was not aware of since this day. I can provide some Photoshop how-to's or design lessons. Huh?

A great choice. Thank you for inviting. An interesting contest. Need to think about my fave word :)

My pleasure! Process is everything, win is a bonus pleasurable surprise!

MY FAVOURITE WORD IN ENGLISH IS GRATITUDE

WHY

Gratitude is the act of showing appreciation for something that has been done to you or someone else.
This could be done by simply saying "Thank You"
I have come to realise that without gratitude we cannot achieve anything in life. Whatever you have today is because you were grateful for something in the past. And whatever you would have tomorrow would be because you are grateful for something today. Saying a simple "Thank you " to yourself for who you have become would reshape your life for you to be someone better.
Say "Thank you " to someone else and greater things would happen to you.
I have made GRATITUDE a part of my life.
I would like to invite @rubilu123, @chenty and @bibsonhabib to this amazing contest

@arashid1 I would also should this word. I totally agree with you that showing our genuine appreciation for others will lead to a beautiful world. I have started saying thank you for things I do for others too, as I'm grateful to have the opportunity to help others.

Woow that's great

If everyone has a mind of gratitude, then the world will be a better place.

Exactly 🔥

WHY?

Trust leads to various accomplishments. It is the beginning in any venture. Trust leads to hope and brings back good results, because when you have it as your backbone your steps and feet becomes stronger as you march along towards fulfillment.

The holy Bible puts it this way in Proverbs 3 verse 5:

Trust in Jehovah with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding.

Anything I want to do I put my trust in God, and at all times, He has never forgotten me. It is that TRUST that I will earn a living through Steemit Blockchain Social Network, sharpen my skill in writing and learn from others too in this platform that has kept me going till date. I have that Trust and believe that I will earn the highest Steem prize that moved me to participate in this Contest.

Tell me that one thing you want to have good results from that TRUST will not be involved. Is it a successful marriage? Could it be that close family tie? Do you want to pass an examination? Are you seeking for an employment? Do you want to embark on an investment or a businessman that wants to make profits? Are you pregnant? Or looking for a way to become pregnant? Are you learning a skill? Even those sick in the hospital have this quality at the back of their mind trusting God for a healing. Trust leads to believe. Trust revolves around everything that we do. Trust makes one to go extra miles.

All these points above makes Trust my favourite everyday word. Thank you.

I invite @goodspeed22, @meymeyshops and @simeon00 to also participate in this contest.

You are right about the word TRUST, yes it's involved in all facets of human endeavors. I trust your boldness

Trust is a very nice word.Thank you for your participation.

Favorite word Is Kindness

My favorite word is kindness because this is a precious thing that you can spread to everyone. If someone needs help you can hold their hands. This is the greatest gift you give them. This is the most powerful implement which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.
True kindness is that which is done without expectations.

I would like to invite
@moeenali, @five5, @zuly7059

My favorite English word is FAMILY. People cannot live alone without family. The family has to live in such a bond with each other. The family establishes such a connection between us that we cannot go on without each other. Sometimes everyone cooperates. Everyone sympathizes with everyone. When someone in the family is small, everyone in the family helps him to grow up. No matter how much happiness or sorrow comes, we have to grow up in the middle of the family. We have to survive by sharing all the sorrows and happiness. Whenever we are in danger, the only family is by our side in times of danger. If the family has something of its own, everyone in the family comes forward. Similarly, if another member of the family has something to do with it, another member goes ahead. It is impossible for us to survive without family. There is no human being in the world who lives without a family. The family has been, is and will be among us since the beginning of the creation of the earth. People are family oriented. People return to their families at the end of the day, no matter where they are all day. People's joys, sorrows, pains all share with the family. Everyone laughs at the joy of one. Everyone cries because of the pain of one family member. No matter how many obstacles come in front, everyone faces them together and solves them. I think family is a big thing. We cannot live without family. Everything about our family. The family is an association or unity group that will never break. Many times in the family there is a breakdown. But it is not permanent. Once upon a time there was a similarity between the families. So the word FAMILY in English is very dear to me. Because people mean family. Family means people.

I also invite : @quin-art , @leafoflife and @rabibulhasan71

Thank you all, I wish you all good health.

WISDOM

Why Wisdom?

Wisdom, for me, lies at the epicentre of life. Wisdom makes life seamless. I believe that with wisdom, one would know when and how to love, forgive, discipline, talk, show gratitude, act, lead, trust, make sacrifices, just name it!
Possessing virtues is one thing, knowing how and when to apply them is another.
Wisdom accrues to the elderly because it comes with experience; imagine an encounter with a wise child! No wonder the scholars, according to the Bible, were flabbergasted at Jesus' teachings when he was 12.
With wisdom comes respect. Queen Sheeba came herself to hear Solomon speak. That is the power of wisdom.
Wisdom helps you navigate the vicissitudes of life with a level of ease. So, that is why I like the word 'Wisdom'; life basically revolves around it.

Thanks @ftz for the contest. My favorite English word is HAPPINESS I love this word because it describes the one thing that I want in life. Of course everyone wants to be success, people wish for Fame and endless riches... Obviously IAM human and i do have ambitions too but what I want most from life is to be happy. I want that no matter where I end up or with whom I end up, the word HAPPINESS ought to be in the equation. 😊😊 After all, no matter how rich someone is; no amount of money can bring you heart felt happiness. Happiness goes a long way. It may seem small but it can do wonders..I believe that a happy mind is a healthy one

I invite @brendakim, @littlemissmukene and @pixiepop to take part too.

Yesooo happiness is the antidote for pain or sorrow, thanks for sharing.

My favourite English word is FAMILY.

The Merrier Webster dictionary defines family as :"a group of people who are related to each other."
source

But hey, that's just semantics. Family is much more than that. Family is love. And loyalty. And support system.

Screenshot_20210929-190624~2.png

I know this because while growing up I was a 'truant'. I would leave home. Play soccer for money. Get into street fights. Wander about.
At the end of the day, when I get into deep water, when I get hungry and need somewhere to rest, I would remember that I have people to go to. People who would never turn their back on me. People who would always see me as part of them.

Thats how lovely family is. Always there for you. No matter what.

Thank God for love. Thank God for unconditional loyalty . Thank God for great support system. Thank God for FAMILY.

I am inviting @luckydrum @Jaycee10 @Kimora996 to participate.

Wooooow!, Family is indeed beautiful

Yeah. Thanks

Asalamoalikum,
This very interesting contest i am really glad to be a part of this.
My favourite word in english is FORGIVENESS:

forgiveness-1_2.jpg

WHY:
Forgiveness is a word which hold us all together and a very important word in all relation.
ALLAH gives a very importance to this word in islam.
In islam forgiveness is a word which ALLAH loves so much and ALLAH says that he gives the reward of those who forgive the people who work under his power the sevants the worker's. A very nice example of this word is MOTHER. Our parent's forgive all our mistakes and give a warm hug to us i talk about all the parents.our Holly prophet Muhammad give the lesson of forgiveness that forgive the mistake of our younger our elder our relative and move forward. Forgiveness does not always means that you are right and other person is wrong it's means that you value your relationship more than your ego.

MY FAVOURITE WORD IN ENGLISH IS SACRIFICE

WHY?
It is an act of giving up something valuable out of genuine love and not for selfish benefits. Sacrifice involves giving out a whole lot just to put smiles on people's faces.

A Mother's sacrifice for her children is one compared to none. It involves giving up her entire life, comfort and time.
