Giving not asking

It's a treasure.

Winter, a time where it's amazing when you're warm and cold when you ain't. It's the time where most of the people get a chance to get together. It becomes a reason why people eager for gatherings and others for food. Having no bumps in our paths, always put our heart onto comfy treasures. No sacrifice, no care, no lively aspect of life and nothing. Treasure is something we know as a precious things but it's our heart , which's treasurer than all. The worldly treasure can be found in one place but our heart can be in many places.

I do have a daily routine: Take a step forward and check the treasure's whereabouts. Because whatever we focus on dictates our steps. I was dictating my steps when i was heading to downtown area in saskatoon. I didn't have a car or enough money just couple bucks. It was around winter time, a bit chilly and most importantly a daytime to see what stands before you. As i was went to the bank, got what i went for and as was passing i came across a bench by the sidewalk, where a middle-aged lady was sitting.

I was feeling chilly to be aware but when asked didn't turn back. The lady asked me if i do have money, i only had the overdraft money in my account and it's a bit tricky question and request at the same time. I took out 50 dollars, she asked me to give her money for a sandwich but i thought of later not the meantime because, we may plan for our future home, car or whereabouts but have we ever thought of planning for our giving for later.

I felt a bit sorry and happy, i felt sorry for not being able to be a sufficient providence for her but at the sametime felt happy for giving the money i was able to give. See our world is in a big quagmire, not because we don't give but because the treasure is in so many uncounted places. We try to gather the places in order to put our focus or to put treasure in one but we can't. How can we put our treasure in focus?.

However, when we try and work hard to for the top we fell at the some point Because our passions ain't aligned with our goals. Investing our treasure in material things keeps our hearts anchored to earthly values but if we invest in things that can put our heart in focus and in one place then it doesn't troubled. If something is of genuine value to you, there’s no disguising it. Anything which you treasure, you treat like a treasure. Treasure requires, an ear to listen and it needs some digging.

Any conventional treasure is worthy as the currency. Once it’s been spent or enjoyed, it loses its luster. As it’s been said, with great position comes great responsibility. The heart’s the control center for life, a person’s life is a reflection of his heart. In order for us to not lose the balance off the surface, we owe to be guarded and watch over. For instance, a young guy drives a new car off the parking lot in boast. The next thing we hear is the car git sideswiped and no piece of value in it. If we deem things as valuable shows then it unravels whereabouts of our heart. If we have seen the movie called, ‘’ the mummy ‘’, and a character called Beni. When they find the great treasure room and as it turns out that Beni lost all sense of control and is controlled by the riches.

As we live in, as we breathe in, let’s put our treasure in one place. Putting our heart in focus is putting it in one place. Giving is not give but to pave the way for others. Life’s short, our bank balance might be short but think of what we have and how they would spent the day.
