Selflessness at Christmas

When we were younger, we never really liked giving presents, we just liked receiving them from our friends and family.  Many best friends just agree not to buy each other presents, just to save each other hastle.

I however, have had a revelation this year, as this year, ive had to start paying for my own things, such as presents for family, and ive decided to spend the spare bit of money i had left over after buying what i needed to at christmas, to spend on others.

Like today, ive treated my best friend Arran to Left 4 Dead 2 via the Steam gift service.

This is barely nothing compared to the gift hes buying me in return, but still, i guess its the thought that counts, and ive brought this collecting up my last little bit of money. Just because i knew he wanted it and i knew i may just be able to afford it.

I like knowing that ive given him something to do, i know hes a big fan of zombie games, so this means my present to him is going to mean hes going to have a lot of laughs.

I enjoy helping people out, thats why i think if i ever reach fame via YouTube, i wont be a like many of the other stubborn others, im actually going to try and help people i feel are underrated, because i know what it feels like to be in that position where i cant get anywhere, but i guess, as im still in that position i cant really voice my opinion, as of yet.

Either way, im going to try as hard as i can, no matter how big i get, to read all comments put on my videos, answer all questions asked and heavily interact with them all. One other means of communication i hope to utilize is twitter, meaning they can easily contact me and i can easily respond.

So yeah, feel free, if you have any questions to tweet @halfpipes on twitter.
I will try and answer/respond to all things sent my way.

I hope you guys, reading this are also quite selfless. The gift of giving is a strange one to enjoy, especially when you are technically the one losing out on getting something for yourself. But i've grown to enjoy seeing other people happy more than seeing myself happy.  Well, i worded that wrong, what i meant was, if the people around me are happy, that makes me happy.

Thanks for reading guys.
