What is giving? and why do we do it? Do we do it to feel good, feel like we are contributing to society? or do we do it out of the kindness in our hearts? Do we give more for our image to appear ‘nice’? to appear ‘charitable’ to society? I guess no matter how you look at it, you are still giving and that is what truly matters, in the broad sense. But as a person, don’t you want to know why you feel the need to give? Maybe take a step back and look at the why. Why do you feel the need to buy your friends meal while you are out to dinner? Why do you donate money at your church? Why do you give your clothes away to goodwill? Personally, I am at fault for giving money to someone to better my relationship with them, buying them a meal so maybe they will like me more. I hate that I have thought that and that it didnt just come from the bottom of my heart. I hate that I had to have a motive to want to give something to someone. I want to stop myself in the future from doing something nice in vain and not just to be nice, because that is who I want to be and who I aspire to be.
Tune in for next Wednesday’s talk about drama :)

Hello Everybody. This is a new blog I am starting on my ever many questions about life, love, religion, and the overall universe because the world is one messed up ball of uncertainty. You will follow my journey of self-discovery and help me cope with whatever I might need to rant about or laugh about, or cry about. So I hope you enjoy my inner thoughts and discretions, and are able to relate to me somehow, or someway.
