VERY MUCH GIVING

“Dear could you please give me a sachet of shampoo?”. “I just did not realize my shampoo bottle is finished, how stupid of me not to notice this before hand”. Shilpa at once stood up and on her way to her wash room said, “Don’t worry mum, here you go… take 2 instead… how will you manage from one?”…. Listening this … her mum’s eyes started watering…. She asked “what happened mum?”. Nothing dear….. “I just got a bit nostalgic… you probably don’t even realize that this has been your habit since childhood… you always give more… more that what you have been asked to…. Whether it is just a piece of paper… or money… or your time…. Or your books… your love…your kindness… your care… almost everything under the sun that is worth giving… Do you even realize dear… how much giving you are… don’t give too much… This world and the people here do not deserve this. It will hurt you… when you don’t receive back that much.

I don't believe in that...your generosity due reciprocate in some form or the other....if it was not for that then why doing "Daan" would be considered as a pious act.

But today's moral should be "do charity to them who would make the most out of it.. and give it to those who deserve it".

Being generous is a way of saying that you care,by this act your will rule over people's heart and they will praise you from their inner core....So keep doing the good work...
