Lesson Learned From Steemit (Midnight Musing)
Give freely of what you have
—you have more than you need—
all will be replenished, tomorrow
To hoard is to mistrust
in life’s bounty and infinite grace
Life is the lover
that takes us back,
no matter how
many times we cheat.
(This post is dedicated to all my virtual teachers on this fine platform. Whether consciously or unconsciously you are teaching, by example, how to conduct oneself, generously.)
i myself dont practice giving back often even though i know its a good habit to have. thanks for the wonderful words of wisdom my friend! i love it! see you around! :)
I beg to differ, @andywong31. There are many ways to give back. You, my young friend, are also one of my teachers, in how generous you are with your time - acting as a member of Steemit’s (unofficial) welcoming committee. Thank you, for teaching me, by example 🙏🏼
Its always my pleasure bro and youre welcome! See you around my friend! 😀
Cheers ✌🏼
I feel there is a lot of truth in this short piece to contemplate, thanks!
You are one of the teachers that I had in mind, @kenny-crane. As on Steemit, so in life...
Here’s a kind of echo on the art of giving:
“For in truth it is life that gives unto life-while you, who deem yourself a giver, are but a witness.”
―Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet
Yes. Despite all the messed up stuff that happens, life is amazing.
I agree, @bhop42moro. And, if we dare to practice radical acceptance and gratitude, we find that even ‘the messed up stuff that happens’ is necessary in order for us to fully appreciate what is truly ‘amazing’.
There is a Zen saying that, ‘The obstacle is the path.’ Sufi poet Rumi seems to agree when he also says:
“If you are irritated by every rub, how will you be polished?”
If you donn't mind that I am dedicated this post to you. Because you are the first who acknowledge my first post that is introducemyself and after that I start reading your blogs and try my best to become good student.
thanks yahya....
