Quote by Kahlil Gibran
You often say ; I would give , but only to the deserving, The trees in your orchard say not so , nor the flocks in your pasture.Surely he who is worthy to receive his days and nights is worthy of all else from you.And he who has deserved to drink from the ocean of life deserves to fill his cup from your little stream. See first that youyourself deserve to be a giver , and an insturument of giving.For in truth it is life that gives unto life-while you , who deem yourself a giver , is but a witness.
Summary
This quote emphasizes the idea that our judgment of who is deserving of our generosity and assistance is often flawed. The trees in our orchard and the flocks in our pasture don't discriminate in providing their resources to anyone who needs them. The quote suggests that if we believe someone is deserving of their existence, then we should also believe they are deserving of our help and support. It challenges us to examine ourselves and question whether we truly deserve to be givers and instruments of giving. Ultimately, it highlights the interconnectedness of life and the importance of embracing a giving mindset.
