Give


If I'm feeling anxious, depressed, sad, down... I find that the more I give away, the better I feel. We all have those days, right? 

Whether it's giving my time, my love, a hug, an ear, dinner.... It makes me feel better. 

Wouldn't that be nice if our bank accounts operated the same way? The more we spent, the more appeared in our balance? :)

Strength does not get used up when you use it. In fact, it grows.

Sharing your wisdom with another person does not take that wisdom away from you. It actually deepens your wisdom, and makes it even more profound.

Giving your love does not in any way diminish the love you have. It makes your love more meaningful.


You can exercise compassion for month after month, and you’ll end up with even more compassion.

Some of the most powerful and valuable things in life are the things that never get used up.

Those things such as love, integrity, truth, compassion and wisdom become more plentiful the more they’re used.

Great post! I agree with you - whenever I am feeling unsatisfied or unhappy in my life I go and volunteer somewhere. It's amazing how much your feelings can change when you are helping those less fortunate!
