You can only give away what you already have inside yourself

True giving happens when you are overflowing from the inside, and cannot help but share. When there is so much love within you that it has to flow to others or you would burst open. There is no thinking involved, no willpower in such sharing. It just flows out. If you have to force yourself to be kind, to love, to feel compassion, you've missed the first step of filling in your own self with these emotions. ~ GOD WANTS YOU TO KNOW

Reading this message taken from a Facebook app, reminds me of a phrase: "SHARE WHAT YOU HAVE". Don't get jealous if someone you've loved sharing half time with you and the other half with others. 

 It's time for me to be not selfish, and to tell others to do good is nobler and less trouble.

With what you have now is a perfect way of sharing yourself to others, it just comes out naturally.

    What reminded me of the passage above has something to do with "You cannot give what you do not have." And that for me means, you can only truly love someone if you have learned to fully love yourself. :)

    Great message and great reminder. Sharing is caring. Sharing means there more room for yourself to receive more blessings.

    We all should learn not to be too selfish and I agree with, you should't force yourself to be kind and to do good things to people. :)

Wonderfully Made

Look at the world around you, the infinite detail and creativity. Unimaginable beauty surrounds us every day. You are part of that creation, materializing from the same artist that created sunsets and rainbows. Don't ever allow yourself to think you are anything less than wonderful.~  GOD WANTS YOU TO KNOW Sometimes there will always come a time that you feel you are alone and no one cares for you. The feeling of being left alone. Nobody ever notices that you even exist.   Even if you are with your friends you can feel pretty down about it.  One can be lonely indeed in the midst of a crowd. We come across this kind of scenario, that you feel left out from time to time. ALONE and ABANDONED. We come to a point that depression hit us this way.  You feel weak and feeling down when there is no reason to; though sometimes I enjoy being alone in order for me to recharge from a stressful life. Looking at the things surrounds me I can say I am stil...
