Wisdom reminds us we're nothing. Love reminds us we're everything. Life happens in the balance between the two. Even on the hard days, when we're hurting, afraid, or feeling like we don't have enough, there's still something we can give. A kind word, our time, our attention. We're all in this together, each doing our best and living life in our own way. Giving when it's hard is how the spirit stays free.
You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give.
Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet
