The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others Why do we ,instill sharing in our children if such virtue applies merely to the youth? “A bone to the dog is not charity. Charity is the bone shared with the dog, when you are just as hungry as the dog.” Have we forgotten that we belong to one another" all for one, one for all"? "no man is an island entire of itself" For in the same measure you practice love, generosity,& giving it will be measured upon you. If you think that by Throwing a dog your chicken scraps you are practicing an act of charity or sacrifice, then certainly ,you are fooling yourself. True selflessness comes from the heart in which one does not give with selfish intent, in hopes of gaining things like commodities, praise, or earthly possessions, but merely in hopes of spreading acts of love. The first question which the priest and the Levite asked was: "If I stop to help this man, what will happen to me?" But... the good Samaritan reversed the question: "If I do not stop to help this man, what will happen to him?" ~Martin Luther King, Jr.
