I’ve Learned Something

I’ve learned in my few years that most folk want the same thing(s)

But not realizing that for that they wish to receive,

They must give or share with each other

But too often that we want,

We desire to possess more of than the others

So we give less in order to possess more,

In case we fail to receive enough to count as more?

We often receive gifts that are more than we need

And the surplus is to be shared if not given

But we refuse,

Then wonder why the gift spoiled before it matured.

We fail to realize that to whom much is given, much is required

If not to give away the abundance then to share that not needed.

For giving is to comprehend what is the gift

And to share is to  plant seed(s)  expecting a future harvest.

I’ve learned in my few years that most folk want the same thing(s)

But not realizing that for that they wish to receive,

They must give or share with each other

But too often that we want,

We desire to possess more of than the others

So we give less in order to possess more,

In case we fail to receive enough to count as more.

Only to receive some-thing that we did not expect.

A weed that grows with all gifts, it is called

“DOUBT”
