One of my favorite quotes is from Robert Thurman: “The feeling of wealth is enhanced when you give, not when you take, since, subliminally, giving means you have enough to share, while taking means you may not be getting enough. Giving is a relief. Taking is a burden.” It is an interesting take on why greed would lead to more greed - we humans just keep needing more and more! So thank you for making me think about this in a different setting this morning!

I try to make sure I'm someone who has a positive attitude and doesn't increase their anxiety. Rather, I'm someone who can help them.
