We cannot give what we don't have...

Only the blessed can bless, the joyful be happy, the rich can give... the healthy can donate their kidneys.

We can give only from a position of abundance and not lack. We can't give what we don't have or have enough of.

I have seen many frustrated people trying to give what they don't have. We can't serve when we have not served (treat) ourselves sufficiently. We need to take time for ourselves, to develop ourselves, to keep ourselves fit, to fulfill ourselves, to bless ourselves, to humour ourselves, to understand ourselves, to pamper ourselves, to like ourselves, to love ourselves. When we do so, we will be in a position of abundance to give time to others, to develop others, to give energy to serve others, to bless others, to fulfill others, to humour others, to understand others, to pamper others, to like and to love others!

To those who behave badly sometimes, know that you may need time for yourself and know that others are hurt when you behave like that. In any case, i will bless you because only the blessed can bless. Happy Lunar New Year everyone.
