Dies Quote by Wayne Muller
“A gift is like a seed; it is not an impressive thing. It is what can grow from the seed that is impressive. If we wait until our seed becomes a tree before we offer it, we will wait and wait, and the seed will die from lack of planting… The miracle is not just the gift; the miracle is in the offering, for if we do not offer, who will?”
About This Quote

Focus on offering, not just receiving.
