The Gifts We Are Given

This is what I am meditating on today:

"[A] gift is something that is given. You don't own it. The world does.

The world is asking you to use it.

You don't get to say no, no matter how much you may want to."

Thoughts:

1. Sharing of thought-provoking quotes and poetry is a very good use of Facebook

2. The saying "no" to our gifts...how does that show up in our lives?

I'm curious what you think about this...especially #2.

3. Thanks, Britt! (Britt writes an excellent blog, Have Fun, Do Good)

How do you say no to your gifts? How do you say...yes?
