Give and Take


For me to give to you,
I must first give to me.
For me to help you,
I must also help myself.
So if today I can't help,
It's because I must give to me first
And then I'll be able
To help you again.
And if I'm regrouping,
It doesn't mean that I don't care.
In fact it means I'm recharging,
Because I do care
And want to give again.

Lovely poem 'jewel'. And I fully agree with your sentiment. My past mistake has been to think I can run on bread alone. But I must have peanut butter! lol. Be well sweet friend; recharge and return to us. peace, dcrelief
