We may find many interesting quotes and saying while doing searching over the internet. In such one of the day, I came along a saying by a great Babylon sage.
The reward of charity depends entirely upon the extent of the kindness in it.
There is very deep.meaning inside the few words. People always seek for greatness and they do many things to make it possible. It may be owning luxirous and expensive material or doing show off. In other words all the materialistic things.
However, In pursuit, they miss that Greatness is not what we have, but it is in what we give. Many great people so far does that by using their wealth for the benefit of others.
People do keep themselves busy in procuring and amassing wealth and keep them accumulating over and over. These people think that by giving, they will lose all of it. But it is mentioned in ancient Vedas as well that "Giving is not equivalent to losing".
Generosity and Kindness are two human qualities which prompts people to give. And such true giving comes from the same source inside us which is known as InnerBliss.
Rivers do not drink their own water, nor does trees eat their own food.
There are many such natural instances where nature teaches us to make a mindful and meaningful life just by sharing and making others happy. There is no greed and expectation attached to such kindness and generosity. Being Generous is the most Natural , outward expression of an inner attitude of "Compassion & Conviction" that whatever excess we have is for the benefit of those who are in need.
Sometimes, many people get afraid that by doing such generous work, oryers will take advantages. But in real , by cultivating generosity within us, we only succeed in oppressing our own Greed and Attachment.
Here, Giving is not only related to giving money or materiatic things. However, once we make giving our attitude, it can be any form. May be kind word, a simple smile, or appreciating other work.
Giving in terms of our Time, Patience, Wisdom, Compassion, Tolerance, and Caring are worth more than anything that Money can buy.
Stay Calm....
Keep Steeming...Steem On !!!

Namaste from @steemflow
This is such a beautiful Post. I believe it it is in our nature to be generous and kind, but life has taught us other things and we have put up These Walls of resistance. Some of these walls go under the name of greed and selfishness and lack of trust, believing that one will be taken advantage of. However the reverse is true as the more generous and kind you are the more comes back at you. Giving and receiving and giving and receiving is part of the natural way of the universe and we must allow for it in our own lives. I absolutely loved reading this thank you for this beautiful thought today xx

absolutely. For is not giving our true nature? That abundance is nature’s Nature. Within us lay a place where the desires of the Divine may move through us, where we feel aligned. In tune with the Pulse of Source. When we do, these natural feelings arise of the desire to give, to allow ourselves to be received. For in the end, there truly is no separation, when we give to another, we give to ourself. Xx

You’ve been visited by @walkerland on behalf of Natural Medicine!
beautiful post - thank you! I've noticed that often people with less to give are more generous. Maybe because they know what it's like to be without and are more able to observe and empathize with the struggles of others. I agree with everything you say here and think this is a beautiful reminder to be generous in all ways. Even giving someone your time or attention, a helping hand to a stranger in need is deeply rewarding.

Beautifully said. For when we have gifts, we can share the lessons and things we’ve learned and earned, that have even been given to us. We can spread that energy, that caring and compassion, that gratitude, knowing that it grows in fortitude. That that wave of generosity leads to ever widening circles of prosperity. That there is enough to go around, and we are worthy, and able to share goodness for all.
If you’re interested, I just put out a post on my blog about practices to heal by intentionally aligning with Nature . Blessings
