To paraphrase the great Roman philosopher Seneca (4BC-65AD); “You complain that you have met with an ungrateful person. If this is your first experience of that sort, you should offer thanks either to your good luck or to your caution. However, caution can effect nothing but to make you UNGENEROUS. For if you wish to avoid such a danger, you will not GIVE benefits; and so, that benefit may not be lost with another person, they will be lost to yourself. It is better, however, TO GET NO RETURN THEN TO PRESENT NO BENEFITS.”

HOW MUCH DO YOU GIVE AWAY? A true gesture of GIVING AWAY is measured not by the result of the act but by the SOUL from which it springs. In other word’s WE DO NOT WEIGH THE BULK OF THE GIFT, BUT THE QUALITY OF THE KINDNESS WHICH PROMPTED IT. The sensible person enjoys the GIVING more than the recipient enjoys the receiving.

SO HOW MUCH DO YOU GIVE AWAY? THERE IS ALWAYS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR KINDNESS. Be happy with what you have. Share what you have and you will become rich with happiness and richer in spirit. Doing as such, YOU WILL KEEP LEARNING TO LIVE AS LONG AS YOU LIVE

KNOWLEDGE IS GIVEN BY THE WISE. KNOWLEDGE IS THE MASTER OF THE FOOL. HOW MUCH DO YOU GIVE AWAY? THE GREATEST WEALTH IS TO ALWAYS BENEFIT OTHERS. TRUE HAPPINESS IS TO UNDERSTAND OUR DUTIES TO OTHERS. THE POWER TO GIVE AWAY KNOWLEDGE IS TRUE POWER.

HOW MUCH DO YOU GIVE AWAY?
