GIVING:
For a while, we may need to back off from giving as
we learn to discern the difference between healthy
giving and caretaking.
To be healthy, to do our part in this spiritual way of
life, to be part of the endless cycle of the Universe,
we need to give and receive.
Giving is a fine-lined behavior each of us must seek
to understand for ourselves. It is giving that feels good
and does not leave us feeling victimized.
It is giving based on a desire to do it rather than from
a sense of guilt, pity, shame, or obligation.
It is giving with no strings attached. Or it is giving based
on a clean, direct contract.
Whether it is giving of our time, efforts, energy, comfort,
nurturing, money, or ourselves, it is giving that we can
afford.
We can learn to give in healthy ways; we can learn to give
in love. We need to keep an eye on our giving, to make sure
it has not crossed the line into caretaking. But we need to
learn to give in ways that work for us and others.
