“You give but little when you give of your possessions.
It is when you give of yourself that you truly give.”
-Khalil Gibran, The Prophet
Don’t ever think that you have nothing to give. When you listen to what people around you really need, you’d be surprised at how much you can still give away.
For many, all it takes is just the presence of one person to ease their suffering. A listening ear, a warm embrace, a generous smile. We are more than able to offer these to our fellow men.
Even when we are weak or are suffering ourselves, we can still offer our understanding and our prayer, and O, how valuable is that prayer!
The money we give away can be easily spent. But the love we give is multiplied and is passed on to bless other hearts.
“It’s not how much we give but how much love we put into giving.” – Mother Teresa
