The Giver

I want to be a better giver.I want to know that good feeling on the inside when

I made someone’s day!

I want to know that my life really does matter and that I have given back in

some way!

When I’m gone and have taken my last breath. I want others to remember the

good times and the loving memories of me.

A giver is unselfish and loves to rejoice in others who are blessed! They live for

the smiles of others and the warmth they feel because they made someone

happy.

They love to share because they want others to experience the same thing.

So as I continue on my journey, may I continue to give and continue to live.
