I wanted to share a little something I've learned through giving and having at times recieving.
I have given quite a bit in my life, and have come to understand that when one gives money or resorces to someone else in need, the best policy is to realy let it go, as if you never had it in your possetion, than to learn to forget about it, and very important to never bring it up again. unless it is part of a testimony or something like that, best if you tell nobody of your deed and also part of giving is to not expect it back, from the same resourse that you gave to.
To many people it is more difficutl to recieve, yet, in this spiral of injury, rejection, etc I found that I had to learn to recieve help, for me a much harder thing to do. I've always known that you will be blessed for your giving in one way or another if you truely give, and let go. yet, what i didn't know and latter found out, that you should recieve with as much joy as you give because if you don't truely recieve what is given to you than the person that is giving won't get thier blessings.
It takes hard work to give to someone with out making them feel like a looser or low life, or a begger, but if you put some effert into your giving and ensure that the reciever is truely recieving with joy, than you can count on being blessed. and for those of you that find yourself of having to recieve help, do so with joy and thanksgiving, and sure enough the person that gave to you will be blessed, and should not regret letting go of thier gift.
Granted, after being in both situations I do find it to be true as the old saying goes "it is better to give than to recieve" it does feel a whole lot better to give, and much more fun!
I thought I'd share this especialy for those that are having a hard time asking for help, I have found that after recieving help, that then I'd always run into someone even worst off than I, and because someone helped me than I am able to help someone else. It can be a never ending cycle that makes life a whole lot nicer.
