I read a quote which got me thinking. It said 'take it as if you're born to give and they to receive; it'll make your life much easier'. Never have I heard a quote so true... In fact, I embace it. I've always thought that the give and take theory is fair but realistically how often have you given and how much have you received? Personally for me, I feel that I've given more. It's not that I'm insincere in my act of giving but acknowledgment and appreciation is all I need.
I've given my time, care and patience to many people in my life. I give and I give and I give some more. What I got in return was a lot of shi**ty attitude, lies and an uncountable number of ungrateful people. However despite the bad experiences, I'm still giving... I don't know... It's just in my nature to give. Anything from gifts, a listening ear blah blah etc... It feels good to give ya know.. I have my limits of course but the unfair treatment I get makes me frustrated. Note to self: Face it.. you're just born to give and not to receive...
