The Act of Giving and Receiving
Last Update: Dec 24, 2018
IN LIGHT OF THE CHRISTMAS SEASON.
When we reflect on Christmas and all it has to offer, spreading and receiving joy will have a lasting impact on the rest of your life!
SO, WHAT ARE YOU DOING THIS WEEK?
Take time during this upcoming week (and always) to give out some happiness from your heart to someone who needs your kindness. It will make all the difference in the world!
At the same time, you will have entered into your soul, the wonderful act of also receiving a feeling of joy.
STRETCH THE LIMITS!
Extend your love into WA and beyond. Reach out to others, and let others pay you some gratitude and kindness in return. Being a giver is one thing---and a beautiful thing. But, also knowing how to receive a caring gesture captivates us in a gratifying way. Humbly spreading Blessings will allow you to receive many back, and, at the same time, the cheerful giver will receive greatness in their life.
IN OUR BUSINESS AND IN LIFE.
The same works in our businesses. Reaching out with a kind reply, some wise advise or just a simple "Thank you for visiting my site!" will surely bring joy and will establish a special rapport: "A close and harmonious relationship in which the people or groups concerned understand each other's feelings or ideas and communicate well."
Progress can take face through kindness.
GO IN LIFE AND MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
Dedicate some time to spreading joy at Christmas time and always! You have more to give and receive than you can imagine! It's all about communicating!
PLEASE LIKE and SHARE, if you wish, to SPREAD THE JOY! Thank you!

A wonderful post, Erin. Thank you.
Giving is a great thing to do and, as you mention, gracefully receiving is also a great act of kindness.
Have a wonderful Christmas.

Very visual and effective post!
By the way I didn't make the snickerdoodles. The kitchen was running on overtime and overbooked by my wife ;)
However, I did make my 'famous' hot crab dip that the family raved about (we had an early pre-Christmas lunch here as the step-son and his wife are having us Christmas Day!)
Joy to you and yours!! Marc
HAHA, Marc! I know what you mean! I was on my feet cooking the entire day on Saturday while my fam was here! Give your wife an extra hug! YUM, hot crab dip! I had cold shrimp dip--lol! It sounds like you had a wonderful and delicious time! Merry Blessed Christmas Day to you and your family!
Erin :)!
Cold shrimp dip!! Lovely! I'll give that a try for next year's 'famous' speciality.
We've still got Boxing Day to go here in England. I hope we make it; we're already a bunch of stuffed sausages!
Smiles - have a great rest of the holiday week. Marc
Hello Nelson! Thanks for the post! It's more important to give out than receiving as giving is the only assurance of receiving. I got inspired by this post, friend. Thanks for the passion! Wish a Merry Christmas and a happy new year!

Beautiful sentiments
Especially liked the part about giving and receiving. I have always been a giver and have done so with no intent other than giving. I can attest though after the past months also receiving is definitely a humbling experience when you finally allow it,
Merry Christmas to you and yours Cathy (cav)
You interpreted my post perfectly, Cathy! Wonderful reply, my dear! Love it! Merry Christmas Day! xoxo
