Giving & Receiving

There once was a woman who believed that to give is good, and to receive is bad. So she gave and gave of her belongings, until there was nothing left to give. She gave and gave of her time, until it was all taken up with giving.

She gave and gave to her family and friends, until she was so starved and exhausted, that she fell down and died; and thus, was of no use to anyone any longer, and least of all, to herself.
