She said "Oh no, I am fine" Then Roxy went to the reciever and asked, would you like some water and she said "SURE". Roxy left and when she returned she said she had been on a journey and she was parched. Tired and thirsty. She went to the "giver" and asked, do you have any water you could give me? You guessed it, the one who loved to give had nothing to give. Then she asked the "reciever" would you have any water you could give me? and again, she emphatically said "SURE". Ebb and flow, give and recieve, or maybe it is recieve and give?
Marlee shares a story on the audio blog about a single mom she "ran into'. Roxy became a great friend and taught a lesson that Marlee shares about learning to receive. I was most impacted by the activity Roxy did with a group of women. She asked how many were "givers" they all raised their hands. She asked how many were recievers? One woman raised her hand. She brought the woman who was a reciever and one who was a "giver" to the front of the room and gave them each an empty cup. She went to the giver and asked, can I give you some water?
