Don't Hoard the Manna

It’s impossible to use it up — if we consume more, we simply receive more. But if we attempt to hoard it, we’ll experience shortages ourselves, along with the failure of having even a wisp of understanding. The Tao and its inexhaustible powers paradoxically disappear when we attempt to exclude anyone from its unprejudiced nature. ~ Dyer, Wayne (2007-07-31).

When you receive good stuff, be grateful.
Don't be grasping, avaricious, hoggish,
don't compete to get the first, the best, the most.
Receive. Accept. Appreciate. Welcome the gift.
Receive it as your benefactor would have you be,
in a spirit of generosity, of sharing, of rejoicing,
of abundance. You have wealth. But if you covet it
you will have sparsity, need, an inadequate supply.
Look beyond the object to the spirit, the experience,
the view of possibility. Don't hoard the manna.
In receiving you may also distribute,
in welcoming you may also please, honor, share.
