A princess, inside
“If nature has made you for a giver, your hands are born open, and so is your heart; and though there may be times when your hands are empty, your heart is always full, and you can give things out of that–warm things, kind things, sweet things–help and comfort and laughter–and sometimes gay, kind laughter is the best help of all.”
– Frances Hodgson Burnett, A Little Princess
A Little Princess is practically crawling in sage advice and wisdom. This quote is so honest and true, I can’t help but get teary eyed when I read it. This little girl lost all of her worldly possessions and loved ones in the world, and yet she has an understanding that most people simply dont. If you dont have any money, you are not a less valuable person, and you still have so much to give. Aside from being extremely inspiring, this quote makes me feel like the little kids are the ones who have it right. Bacause they know what really matters. And it isnt money.
