The Dead Sea
is...well…
dead.
Why?
It’s a taker.
A taker has an inlet,
but
no outlet.
People who do this
(you’ve met them)
are
dead too.
They just don’t know it.
So it’s an easy lesson,
shouted from the rooftops
of good
business,
life,
relationship
practices.
We get it:
Don’t be like the Dead Sea.
Be a giver.
What we don’t get:
the reverse is also true.
If you are all outlet,
if all you do is give,
if every act flows away,
if everything is
always for someone else,
soon you will be empty
and
empty = dead inside.
Vibrant,
teeming,
growing,
breathing,
abundant,
life
is found
in learning
how
to give
and
receive.
