ARE YOU A GIVER OR A TAKER

DO YOU GIVE OR DO YOU TAKE?

I haven't always been a Giver, I used to be a taker. I spent many years of my life worried about myself and not really caring about anyone else. To some point I felt like I was owed something all the time. This caused years of the since of feeling lost and not truly knowing what part of life I was supposed to play in this world.

See someone once gave to me in a time in my life when I was not expecting it, it was truly an act of kindness and there was no reason other than the person wanted to. This was a life changer for me, up till this point I was always a taker. This person changed me forever, it was a change that was needed and wanted.

I have not been a taker since, I try to give everyday. Now you need to understand that giving doesn't always have to cost you, time is an awesome way to give. But if you are a taker, and I know there are a lot of takers out there, try just once to give unexpectedly and see how it make you feel.
