sometimes,
u can give everything and do anything for someone and say you don't expect anything in return.
but in reality, that's not true.
you see, deep down inside, you expect at least a bit of recognition from that person.
a small favor, maybe?
or a little something to give you?
but no matter how small that token of acknowledgment may be,
you would be at ease thinking that the person had at least,
tried.
how much you expect back form that person depends on what that person means to you.
the more that person means to you, the less you expect in return.
the less that person means to you, the more you expect in return.
weird.
but it's true.
sincerity is difficult to get back once you lost it.
look around yourselves.
people do things and get something in return.
for example, a corporate organisation donates to an orphanage.
for some reason, the mass media is present at this some sort of huge event and it gets reported on the front page
the next day.
and then the next month, the organisation receives investment offers and its share value soars in the stock market.
now do you get the motive?
but you compare it to a volunteer who gives his time and energy feeding and taking care of these same orphans over time,
to who do these children turn to for a listening ear?
the corporate organisation who gets to stuff dollars bills up their mouths and noses with some to spare for the other end?
or the volunteer who after spending his free time to do something selfless, gets a "thank you" and a "see you tomorrow"?
children are very simple in nature.
it's nurture that twists and shapes them and complicates their thinking.
a child believes in his sense of touch and sight more than his other senses.
so what good is money and material comforts when that child doesn't have someone to cling on to when lightning flashes and thunder claps?
what if that child doesn't have someone to comfort them when they fall?
what if that child doesn't have someone to check under their bed for monsters and scare them away?
what good is money if that child doesn't have anyone?
