We all know how great it feels to receive gifts. However, the joy of getting is short-lived. Our lives are richer when we share, and that great inner satisfaction comes from helping others to better their lives. . Giving of our possessions is a little easier to understand because when we just do that we’re aware of just parting with stuff. The exchange can be really empty because there isn’t a depth of relating that is present. Sometimes the ego comes in and says; “Why are you giving what is yours? What are we gaining from it? Will I be losing what I worked hard to get?” Truly giving from the heart fills your life with joy and nourishes your soul. Giving provides an intrinsic reward that’s far more valuable than the gift

Giving takes you out of yourself and allows you to expand beyond earthly limitations.

Academic research and thousands of years of human history confirm that achieving meaning, fulfillment, and happiness in life comes from making others happy, and not from being self-centered.

Why give?

When people are asked why they give, the readiest answers include: God wants me to; I feel better about myself; others need, and I have; I want to share; it’s only right. The question I would ask is how did you feel? I imagine you felt very pleased with yourself and happy inside. It has been my experience that when you’re focused on giving to others you’re less likely to become consumed by your own concerns and challenges. Giving provides an opportunity to look beyond our own world and see the bigger picture. A great perspective can be achieved by stepping out of our own world and venturing into the world of other people. Your worries and challenges may not seem as significant when compared to other people’s situations.

The act of giving kindles self-esteem and brings happiness. Scientists have discovered that happiness is related to how much gratitude you show.

The power of giving

Giving is one of the best investments you can make towards achieving genuine happiness. True giving comes from the heart, with no expectation of reciprocation. You’ll find that the more you give, the more you’ll receive. The power of giving is manifested in the kindness and generosity that you bestow on someone else. When you give to another unselfishly, it is love expressed at its purest form. The power of giving, according to neuroscience, is that it feels good.

If you find yourself feeling unhappy, try making someone else happy and see what happens. If you’re feeling empty and unfulfilled, try doing some meaningful and worthwhile work and see how you feel. The catch is that you must do this work with passion and enthusiasm.

The rewards of giving are priceless. If you want to have happiness, you need to give happiness. If you want love, you need to give love. It is only in giving that you receive. No matter what your circumstances in life, you have the ability to give. I encourage you to look for opportunities where you can give and help others. The gift of joy will come to you when you give of yourself to others. That’s what life is all about. Let’s practice and commit our lives to giving. Try it! It works!

So whether it’s a friend in need of a listening ear or a family member in need of a helping hand, don’t underestimate the incredible gift you have to offer of …

· Just being there.

· Just showing up

· Just listening

· Just showing you care

· Just giving that hug

· That smile

· That helping hand

· That pat on the back

· That word of encouragement…

Here's to a life full of Abundance!

So am reading articles on a recent publication by a young lady on her affair gone bad and public with a married public figure. Mixed feelings from every angle, those who are partisans and those who are against.
And I got thinking, what did she really expect to come from this illicit affair with a married man. I have no intention of judging any situation or anyone but truth be told that was one BIG mistake.

Many of us young ladies are yet to wake from unrealistic dreams of already made Prince Charming or knight in shinning armor.

What will make a young girl with all her potential settle for dating a married man?
I will tell you, it's a quest for the unrealistic that will lead us down that path. We want a man who can make us comfortable, secured and someone we are not responsible for! We want the good life but let someone else pay for it after all it's not for free!
When we get carried away by peer pressure or desires and quest for 'things' we are easy preys.

A virtues woman is one that is ambitious,creative,hardworking,productive,honorable,humble,faithful. The pride of her family,community, and husband or children eventually.
A woman who based on an understanding of the power of the multi tasking ability of a woman, can build her dreams from nothing but faith,focus,confidence,perseverance and hard work.

We are women with purpose and this purpose when fueled becomes the passion that drives us!
We can't settle for less because we know there is much more and more importantly there is the original man meant for us. He may not be a refined public figure with an eight figured earning, or private jets and fleets of cars, but he is just right for us and he compliments and honors us!

Don't be a victim of the immediate because change is the only constant there is! What you see today might not be tomorrow.
Be careful of the decisions and choices you make today because they will determine and shape your tomorrow.

You may be wondering why I speak thus? Experience they say is the best teacher but I say there are some experiences that can be avoided.
Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

You can't eat your cake and have it too!
