but what do you give back?

you take and take and take and take

but what do you give back?

you take love you take money you take compliments

but what do you give back?

you take advice you take meals you take self help tips and tricks

but what do you give back?

you take joy you take energy you take ideas

but what do you give back?

you take time you take resources you

take and take and take and take

but what do you give back.

the giving is free.

giving a hug is free

giving a smile is free

giving a thank you is free

giving your self expression is free

giving yourself to the present moment is free

extending a good word is free

expanding your knowledge is free

leanding a hand is free

uplifiting your vibration is free

being a good friend is free

listening is free

holding space for the silence is free

laughter is free

showing appreciation is free

being who you truly are is free

doing the work is free.

you take and take and take and take

but what do you give back.
