The Sweet Life

Jesus said, "It is more blessed to give than to receive".
Notwithstanding, a life of giving one's self sacrificially is pricy.
Indeed, a 'self-giving life' is rewarding but also costly.
The air in that sphere of life is like mountain air.
The higher one goes the thinner the air becomes.
People in such a high zone are rare breeds.
But thinner air does not mean a bitter life.
A giving life is by far the sweetest life.
