The first gift we ever received
was a gift no-one had to buy
It was the gift of life…
Have you ever wondered why?
Why was I given this gift?
How did I come to be?
and what did the giver of this gift…have in mind for me?
This gift was also given to the mountains and the seas
to the animals
to the rivers
to the flowers and the trees.
This gift was given freely
asking for nothing in return
So what are we to understand from this?
What are we to learn?
Since we all received the same gift
perhaps the giver wanted us to see
how we are all connected and meant to live in harmony.
Since one moment we are not here
and the next moment we are living…
perhaps the giver wanted us to see
a gift is in the giving
And perhaps by giving a gift we never asked for
the giver of life suggested
the best gift we can ever give
is a gift that’s un-requested.
