as much as they are willing to share and give you or are you greedy or needy? How do you measure that and how do you decide how much you are willing to give who? Why?

"Sharing. It's a nice thought, right? You seem to believe so. But, sharing isn't a good idea, bad things come from it. Be careful. I try not to share and for good reason. It's not because I am greedy. It's not because I have nothing, there are deeper reasons."
We have a 13 year old here, and he is proud of it and I am proud of him he says he is an author, I hope the best for you, and my sharing with you would be this get tough because your critics will eventually be hard on you and one day you may be very well known and there will be people that will not like that so they will try to bring you down. As much as you can go into things under a pseudo name until you know who your friends and enemies really are, don't be bold until you have that billion dollar book sale. Smile and be good for your mom okay? Give her a hug for me. I know she has to be proud of you!

Here is what you said! "i am willing to share ,and give ,especially when i love someone,but the question that always pops up ,is it appreciated or not???it doesnt matter how much u give ,it matters how much it draws a smile on someone. " When it matters it does! Yeah! Thank you!

True giving can only come from the heart, if you are giving simply because you believe you should or other people will think you are a better person, then you are giving for the wrong reason.
True giving has no expectation of return, so if you are giving to others with the expectation that it obligates them to give back to you in return, again your heart is not in it.
If you simply give when you feel called to through your heart and without any expectations or conditions you will find an inner happiness you have never known.
And the universe has a wonderful way of returning that heart felt unconditional giving to you in miraculous ways that you could never even dream of.

I never seek for anything in return from that which i freely give. i give all that i can, and still keep my standing <(without taking from my own needs to survive). I am not someone who feels i have to have a lot but i have more than most and i know I can not take it with me so i enjoy giving because it gives me the feeling i have helped someone. i will not give for the sake of giving but only to those i see that need it. meaning if you beg me for food while eating a sandwich i will turn you down.

in the past, i shared and cared often too much,, i have had to learn to be thinking of myself more,,,,,, while still sharing,,,,,, as to deciding,,,,, i take it one issue/situation at a time, sometimes i share when i really should be thinking of myself,,,,, other times i dont when i really should,,,,,, i dont really think there is a way to measure it,,,,,,, you might share all week, then get burned out,,, and not share with the person who really needs it

i give as much as i can without disrupting my life and neglecting my own responcibilitys. i give even when others do not return the favor. yeah sometimes people take advantage of it, but that is the reason i do not give enough to disrupt my own life.
