The habits to earn <br />Benefits from others <br />Evoke self-centeredness <br />And convert people <br />Into ignorant sculptures <br />With their recieving ends <br />Devoid of pleasures of life. <br /> <br />But, if unconditionally <br />One adopts <br />The ability to give, <br />Support and facilitate others <br />Without expecting rewards <br />Is bestowed with <br />Inner contentment. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />3/17/2009<br /><br />Surayya Abbas<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/give-and-take-13/
