Give and Take not Give or Take

Posted on August 12, 2025August 11, 2025 by Virtual Afro Woman

      You give some, you take some! In life, no one person can conquer the world on their own. But, on the other side of everything, no one person should continuously take from another to get what they want. In more recent times, I have heard so many stories about people taking more than giving. Unfortunately, more people are moving in this direction. People are getting things stolen from them after spending their hard-earned money. People are taking advantage of friends/family kindness. The government is taking so much from the working class that people are struggling to live day to day instead of teaching financal wealth. The question to ask is, how can we move forward away from these behaviors?

     All behavior is learned from the environment with individual personalities mixed in. It is our job to teach morals that can create a better future for all. As working-class people, we are all struggling to keep up with life’s responsibility. We are all doing our best to be our best. Taking advantage of another person’s hard work is never okay. In this life community is needed. Being able to work together rather than taking from someone else has longer results. This month, is the anniversary of the March on Washington. It was a time when people equally gave and took things from each other for the greater good. A time when people were struggling, but in unity they made things happen. My hope is for this to be in our future sooner than later.
