SHARE AND CARE

 

It's important for one to share with others whatever he has – money, food,

methods etc.

    Do you remember your early school days when the teachers asked you to share

your lunch or snacks with your friends who didn't bring a box on that day, or as

it was the 'sharing day '?

   It was a good practice if at all it had taught you the habit of sharing with

others.

           When you share your belongings with another that shows you care for

that person  .And that in turn creates a bond between the two of you.

Sharing is not restricted to money , food ,books or some thing like that. You

must be ready to share even your creative energies .Suppose one of your friends

is poor in maths .Spend some time to teach him maths ,to clear his doubts and to

help him gain some confidence in that subject.

     Care for the poor and the sick, the old and the helpless, and animals and

nature.

       You may not be in a position to help  him gain some confidence in that

subject.

   You may not be in apposition to help them monetarily .Then spend some time

with  them .Listen to their problems .Comfort them .Give them the courage to

face the situation.

If you have no time even for that ,spend few minutes everyday to pray for the

welfare of those around you, the citizens of your country and the people of the

world,

    People fear that by sharing they may lose money .But is it true ? No .The

Masters teach that only when you empty your hands they will be filled again.

You become open by sharing, and as a result receive more and more !

  There is a story told in a Sanskrit verse .A beggar tells the householder :

'Don't become like me by not giving .Be like yourself by giving'

A person who donates according to his might will be born again as a rich man

..But a miser who shuns the beggars takes birth as a beggar the next time  !

   By caring for people the 'love nature' in you gets an expression , slowly

filling the surrondings  around you with peace and light.

   How can I care for those whome I dislike ?'------- .you may question.

   Remember  : If you dislike someone ,the fault lies in you ,not in that person

..It's who have to change ,and not the world around you.

'Okay, but what about those who dislike me?'

Well  , it's their problem ,not yours .You've no animosity towards them .So you

behave normally .Isn't it so simple ?

 So share with everyone around you , and care for them.

Do you remember with whome you shared  your books or lunch in your childhood ?

Who are the people who showed concern for you ? who do you care for ? Do you

remember any incident where you helped a fellow human beings and under what

circumstances ?

Have you ever thought of the poor and the helpless ? Can you suggest any

measures to improve their lot ?

 

Three keys to more abundant living: caring about others , daring for others

,sharing with others
