    To give unto others is what allows you to hear the words you’ve been needing. You receive the help and kindness you want by hearing yourself when you give it to those around you. It is not about being owed or due for the kindness of another, but in finding the kindness for yourself through the service to others.

      but in finding the kindness for yourself through the service to others.

      Fastest way to find the cruelty and greed in others.

        Of course there will be those those that take advantage. But just as people will take advantage of social programs, I still advocate for them. And I still stand by my belief that you find your worth in the way you treat others.
