This person was traveling life's journey with only the necessary to live, but he found in his path -by works of destiny, with another person, who asked from him very little but even though it was very little, when one does not have, this "little" seems a lot.And he thought:

-This person is asking for what I have, that is almost nothing. But I am going to share, since life is not only to be lived for myself but "to live is to coexist with the universe." Since this one who asks is also myself. I don't have much, just a little more than nothing but anyway, I will share my bread.

He, then, divided his belongings in two portions and told him:

-Let's share what I have, take what you need.

And the one who asked, replied:

-I don't have anything but a great need. Your help is rather my wealth, you have freed me from poverty, you have become poorer in order to help my condition.

-No, you have not made me poorer, since you taught me that the little that I had, was a lot. You, then, made me rich, because you who said was poor, have given me spiritual nourishment since you helped me to share. Though, many things will come my way: riches, appreciation, understanding, respect, friendship and gratitude. When I look at you, I see myself and I renew my values, my efforts and my dedication.

-I see great nobility, and a firm decision to do good in you. I see a man of faith, of principles and compassion and because you have a selfless heart, I will reveal you a secret.

I am not the beggar that you thought, I am not the humiliated man who has nothing, I am not the man suffering, the abandoned man. I am an angel who came from heaven to see your heart and I found with great happiness and joy that you are the richest man of the world since you have been capable of Giving and Sharing.

That is the reason, that I reveal myself to you, so you know that you have the right path.  You have more wealth that a mountain of gold, you have a pure, noble and gentile heart; the perfection and grace of the fraternal love is reflected in you.

You know the supreme value of wealth, of needs and the true reality of Love.

After saying this words, the angel embraced him.

And the one who shared, not only duplicated what he had, but he had in abundance and his wealth could only be compared to the sky and the stars, since he knew from that instant on, that God is present in the gift of Giving and Service.
