Life is not about receiving. It is not about giving with strings attached to it.
Life is not about what you can get from others.
Life is more than that. Life is about what you can do for others.
Because the more you do for others, the more you get from others.
The more you do for others, the more you do for yourself.
‘While at times suffering can serve to toughen us,
to strengthen us,
at other times it can have value by functioning in the opposite manner-
to soften us,
to make us more sensitve and gentle.
The vulnerability we experience in the midst of suffering
can open us deepen our connection with others.’
– Dalai Lama & Howard C. Cuttter, A Handbook for Living The Art of Connection
