There are so many things we have given out of us that is impossible for us to get back. Words unmeant and harsh that were spoken, often leaving us helpless to mend the hearts those words have broken - Or perhaps, words unsaid where our mouths should have opened; Sometimes what hurts more are words that are unspoken. Its the pieces of our hearts that we give away, to people who always so often never seem to stay..

Thing is, we spend a lot of time on people and in the end we end up giving away parts of our hearts to them. And when they're gone, all the things you've ever said & done can't be taken back.

But not all of the things we give out to others are bad. A smile to the passing stranger could turn around a day that's sad, a hug for a crying friend who's lost everything she's ever had, an encouraging hand of help to a tired mother, spare change to a homeless man who calls home a gutter -

Come Thou fount of every blessing, tune my heart to sing Thy praise.
