They say it is better to give than to receive. Do you believe this? I think we all enjoy both, but it seems the feeling you get when you give sincerely and wholeheartedly is inexplicably different and better, especially when you can see how you have made the receiver happy. At least that's what I have always felt.

I believe that when you give, you receive more in return.

my view is that this world exists on exchange reltionships and everything involves give and take..and its just a matter of time that some people might recieve less and others might give more..but the tide changes very soon..so when we say that we are giving a gift to someone we are not just giving we are also recieving a free meal, some drinks, and few things which are difficult to measure..

I prefer giving to receiving. This makes me happy and my mind light. I never expect things back. The more receiving the more concerning what I will do a right return. I have never complained after giving any thing from my heart.

ever body wants to receive something from others... but we should actually try to give only and not think of getting even if we know that we want something,, we should not expect to receive it from someone

i like giving things to someone i care. i also like receiving gifts. giving gives me more satisfaction when i see smile on the person's face. i try to find what is needed by the person and try to give it as a gift. giving give me more happiness even though i like receiving also. giving makes the other person feel wanted and cared. it creates a feeling of respect and love. finally, be it giving or receiving, it should happen with a smile.

i would be lying if i said that i don't like receiving things (i love surprises! and who doesn't like receiving things?). however, i find much more happiness in spending money on others, even if it's just useless little trinkets that remind me of them.

its nice to give and its also nice to recieve. but i like best is giving. its nice to see the how much happiness you have shared because of giving. if you well off in like, share your blessings to others and it will go back to you thousandfolds in some other ways.

Depends on what iam giving or what iam taking.
I want to gain experiance and share my experiance from people. I want to earn money from my lot :-D and give my best to my lot.
So it all depends on whom and what its realted to.
Cheers,
Tutul
