balance consumption and savings



दातव्यं भोक्तव्यं सति विभवे सञ्चयो न कार्यः।
पश्य मधुकराणां सञ्चितमर्थं हरन्त्यन्ये॥
dātavyaṁ bhoktavyaṁ sati vibhave sañcayo na kāryaḥ|
paśya madhukarāṇāṁ sañcitamarthaṁ harantyanye||


A very important advice... 
it would seem very silly or trivial.. 
but something we usually fail to follow..
to our own dismay.

If some material in our possession is either capable of being gifted or of being consumed, it is better not to hoard them.
Eat them, enjoy them or give them voluntarily to others who can use them.

See, the honeybees collect their honey from so many flowers toiling all along, but store the honey without having the mind to taste them.. 
But what happens..?
Someone else just snatch away all the honey along with the honey combs..
