Giving can produce two kinds of response in the receiver....either one of joy or one of shame. It depends on the manner of giving...which depends on the understanding of the giver.

When we live in the consciousness that we are all ONE....then we cannot but see another as an extension of our self...and therefore we cease to even see ourselves as the giver....cause we are in fact receiving from the experience.

You can throw food at the feet of a beggar or you can extend lovingly a plate of food....either way the seeker will be satisfied of hunger...bodily hunger. But you have lost an opportunity to serve Life.

Most of us have little trouble giving off our material possessions....be it food, money, clothes...in fact...we even pile up the clothes and goodies....and make a grand show of 'giving'!!....But let someone ask for our Love, Time, Affection, Listening, Understanding......and then we are caught.

Cause giving Love, Time....is giving off our selves. True giving.

As we sow , so shall we reap....Sow a seed of greed....and we shall reap it tenfold.
Sow a seed in Love....and we shall reap LOVE tenfold.
Its always our call.

sweetness from swee.
