Getting Back What We Give
|
We
are always trying to get something? admiration, love, recognition,
praise, acknowledgment, even just staying connected. Think how we
manipulate and bargain and negotiate to turn a profit from every
interaction. Much of this is subtle, unconscious habit. Even when we
give, or serve, or love, or pay attention, we?re trying to get
something. Sometimes it?s just to get back some of what we give.
