Should we give some one anyting only if asked for.....

[Guest guest]

Hi all......

 

I was always wondering about this in mind and require a

clarification.....so please help me......

If we know that there is something worth like some knowledge with us

for sharing.....then is it that we need to give that only if we are

asked for.......would it be wrong if i could voluntary to share my

knowledge with others???

That can be a sticky issue. Here's what I go by. If I feel that I

have some knowledge or get an intuition that someone might need some

information, I test the waters. I will ask a few questions or share

a small bit with them and gauge how it's going.

 

We never want to scare someone away from something by ramming it down

their throats (like many religious people do, my father included) but

it is better to gently plant seeds, water them and watch them grow.

It may be that we are only meant to start the process and then

someone else will water it and someone else will tend the garden,

etc. Sometimes our egos get the best of us when we think that we

can " fix " someone or help them " see " something. Leaving the ego

behind, we can accept that we might be planting a seed that we will

not be around to see grow. That doesn't mean it hasn't taken root.

 

Just my ten cents!
