The Art of Giving

The Art of Giving

.

At the end of life we will not be judged by how many diplomas we have received, how much money we have made, how many great things we have done.

We will be judged by "I was hungry, and you gave me something to eat, I was naked and you clothed me. I was homeless, and you took me in."

Hungry not only for bread - but hungry for love. Naked not only for clothing - but naked of human dignity and respect. Homeless not only for want of a home of bricks - but homeless because of rejection.

From what we get, we can make a living;
what we give, however, makes a life.

Nothing is so strong as gentleness,
and nothing is so gentle as true strength.

You give but little when you give of your possessions.
It is when you give of yourself that you truly give.

~Kahlil Gibran~
