Does the World Owe You Anything?

Giving

Now here’s a little idea
The world’s not about me
But about contribution
The way of liberty
The way to give to others
To uplift them so true
No the world’s not about me
But for me – it’s about you

It’s the giving not the getting
The sacrifice we make
For neighbours and our family
The time we give not take
The sharing and the caring
Fulfilment that then comes
From using our resourcefulness
To help another feel less glum

To make their life much better
To help them with their dream
To encourage them to focus
To nurture life supreme
But not just by resources
For none of these impart
The gift we give to others
For that gift comes from our heart
