Wisdom Nuggets: Gentleness, self-sacrifice and generosity are the exclusive possession of no one race or religion.
- Mahatma Gandhi
Wayne Dyer once said "When I chased after
money, I never had enough. When I got my life on purpose and focused on giving
of myself and everything that arrived into my life, then I was
prosperous." And Elbert Hubbard put it thus: "Love grows by giving.
The love we give away is the only love we keep. The only way to retain love is
to give it away."
A pig
was lamenting his lack of popularity. He complained to a cow that people were
always talking about the cow's gentleness and kind eyes. He admitted that cows
give milk and cream, but maintained that pigs give more. He asserted that pigs give
bacon and ham and bristles, and that people even pickle their feet. He demanded
the reason for such lack of appreciation. The cow thought for a while and then
said, "Maybe it's because I give while I'm still living."
