    We give and give because we know that is good thing to do, also eventually it will pay off. Life may sometimes feel like a casino, where your throwing down money on the table but nothing is paying off, your just not winning anything. But life is different in the fact that the bets we make in life have a much higher pay off, once you hit the jackpot you could end up spending the rest of your days happy and in love. All the money in the world couldn't grant you that happiness.

    Thou art give in kindness, but expect none in return. In this lies the true love of making your man happy. Stretch your arms for the sake of alms.

    We give what we give always remembering that we should want nothing in return of our giving.

    The more you give the more the more people expect you to give
