366 days of wisdom (January 19, 2020)

Day 19 of 366

"We are rich only through what we give, and poor only  through what we refuse."

Ralph Waldo Emerson.

Poverty and riches are parallel phenomena, true riches is not in the abundance of possession, but in the willingness and ability to give of the little in your possession. Poverty on the other hand is not the lack of materials or wealth, but the lack of ability and desire to give of the little one has.

Riches and poverty are not necessarily of money, but also of friends, family, good health, and peace of mind. You may be rich in money, and poor of family friends and peace of mind, this will not give you true satisfaction, but even when there is lack of financial riches, but you have friends and family around you, you sometimes will forget that you lack money.

A man can not give what he does not have, so, if a man finds it difficult to give something, then he lacks that thing, but when someone readily gives of the little he has, then he has abundance, even when it seems not to be available at the moment.

The mind of a  giver is a rich mind, even if he is financially poor, while that of a miser is poor even with a fat account and cash balance.

Give and it shall be given unto you.
