While you have a thing it can be taken from you... but when you give it, you have given it. No robber can take it from you. It is yours then for ever when you have given it. It will be yours always. That is to give.

Summary

This quote emphasizes the power and significance of giving. It suggests that while possessions can be easily taken away, the act of giving something willingly and selflessly can grant a lasting ownership and connection to what is given. Once something is given, it becomes a part of the giver, and no one can forcibly take it away. True giving creates an eternal bond, suggesting that the act of giving holds more value and permanence than material possessions.
