Initiate giving. Don't wait for someone to ask. See what happens - especially to you. You may find that you gain a greater clarity about yourself and about your relationships, as well as more energy rather than less.

At the deepest level, there is no giver, no gift, and no recipient . . . only the universe rearranging itself.
Jon Kabat-ZinnRead

Love and ever more love is the only solution to every problem that comes up. If we love each other enough, we will bear with each other's faults and burdens.

It is love that will make us want to do great things for each other. No sacrifice and no suffering will then seem too much.
