A possible secret of life: give, don’t take. Receive through the reciprocation naturally engendered through giving, creating a naturally self-perpetuating cycle that grows to a mutually beneficial level that taking can’t touch. This is how love, and the completing fulfillment of happiness, is made. By doing the opposite of what we’re taught in the West: defining success by giving, not taking. By creating and increasing, not restricting or subtracting, total quality of life.
“The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice." - Martin Luther King Jr.
