A dad, one evening rested into an easy chair with a new book on investing. Hardly a few pages in, his daughter bounded into the room and stopped at his side.
“Daddy, will you read to me?” she asked in a precious tiny voice.
He looked at his book, which promised life long wealth, and then the book tucked under his daughter’s arms, The Velveteen Rabbit.
“Hop up here sweetheart, and let’s find out what The Velveteen Rabbit is up to.”
Giving occasionally means putting your own desires aside for the desires of others. This father realized that the time he spent investing into his daughter would pay a higher reward than the time spent reading his book.
Seek the simple rewards in life, they pay higher dividends.
