and its Importance
My all-time favorite book ever since I was a kid would be The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein. This is Silverstein’s most famous work; it is about a little boy and a tree grows old together.

The Giving Tree can be seen as a metaphor for a mother-child relationship. In this story, there is an animistic tree that cares for a boy and will do anything to see him thrive in life. As long as she sees him, she will be the happiest tree in the word but the boy doesn't appreciate the love and care he is given. For example, a mother….
Greedy And Giving
Most people take giving a brand new definition. You don't have to like what people give you just Think about why they gave it to you.
