I will open my life to the act of giving today. Giving and receiving are
the same channel. When I am able to truly give, I have tuned into the
channel, opened the pipeline, through which I receive. When I love
another, I am loving the self-giving and receiving love. The act of
giving is the key. In giving I receive, in loving I open to experience
love-the world is impartial. If I open the vessel of me, it will be
filled.
I give and I love.
The essential truth about the existence of man is in the Gospels. What
we are, what we hope, what we need, is contained in the Gospels. But
they can be difficult. An easier bridge to their meaning is St. Francis
of Assisi. Simply, Saint Francis says the key to the purpose of life is
giving. In giving, you find happiness. You find peace. If you give, you
find you are serving your purpose in life. In loving, you find love.
Franco Zeffirelli from “The Meaning of Life”
