"Do you share?"
A little girl received a birthday present in the mail. She ripped open the box with all of the enthusiasm a four-year-old has and quickly pulled out her gifts. She found a movie that she had told her Mommy she really, really wanted and a digital camera of her very own that she could take pictures of all of her friends with. She was so excited!
Well, during all of her opening of her gifts, her six-year-old brother watched with patient anticipation, to see if his aunt and uncle had included a gift for him. No, it wasn’t his birthday, but they must have sent something to him, too. But there was nothing in the box with his name on it. Still he really wanted that digital camera so he told his sister, "I’m sure they meant for me to have that camera. They just forget to put my name on it."
Of course, his sister replied, "No, it’s mine!" Then she added, "But I’ll share it with you."
So much of what we have came to as gifts from others. And someone else will probably want it at some point. Will you at least share it with them?
