In order to receive


"The value of a man should be seen in what he gives and not in what he is able to receive.”

There are two kinds of people-those that are pleased with what they have and those that always want more. The first can have two other types-they can be pleased with what they have because they are too lazy or too afraid to achieve more, and just get content with what it is now; and those that can be called wise people-they still try achieving more, but meanwhile they are happy with the palce they are now and the life they have!

And on the third side there are those that are never happy with their life and always want something more, the more they get the less they feel they've got! Well, I myself feel sorry for those people. What a poor way to live your life! Being blind about the present...and blinded by the future!

The thought for tomorrow usually robs the reality of today. Imagine how happy people could be, if they stopped for a while and enjoyed the present moment! If they gave themselves a moment to feel the peace and the love surrounding them! The joy of the simple things in life...because believe it or not simple things bring the greatest joy!

How much better life could be if instead of always striving to receive more, people tryed to give more! There is one thing about life-the more you give, the more you will receive. In life everybody gets what they deserve. If you want to harvest happiness, you should first plant it somewhere else!

Giving and receiving go hand for hand. You can't have one without the other. If you doubt my words make a simple experiment. For a week greet the people you meet everyday. Be nice with them, make them feel good, help them in some way. Then you will see that those little things that didn't cost you anything warmed somebody's heart and he is willing to do the same in return!

In order to receive you should open your hands and give, so you can make some space for the gifts that are prepared for you!
