What do we have to give?

I just think that we all have so much to give and so little time. What do we have to give? Well, there is a certain magic in the positive qualities that we all possess that we can share for free. Some of us are affectionate, loving, nurturing, kind, talented, brilliant, patient, sincere, trustworthy, faithful to name a few. What if we went around finding time to use our qualities to comfort and support someone else. How would this make them feel? How would this make us feel? I cannot explain my satisfaction with this experience. You will have to try it to understand......

The most satisfaction I have gotten in my life is giving of my free will. I do not possess a whole lot of money to give away but I find immense pleasure in giving of myself and my talents out of my free will. What comes naturally to me adds a special meaning to my life and helps someone else. We all need a sense of belonging and unconditional love and also have that special ability to make others feel that sense of belonging and unconditional love as well. And when we are already experiencing that sense of belonging and know how it makes us feel we understand the desperate emotional needs of someone else. Don't we?

What do I consider a sense of belonging? A sense of belonging is gotten when we respect the closeness of family and friends in connection to ourselves. How does it make us feel when we say "My son", My daughter", My mother", My good friend"? What happens when we don't have a daughter, a son, a mother or a good friend? I suggest that you can get out into the world and be that son, daughter, mother or good friend to someone else. Just give it a try and let me know how that makes you feel?
