You are used to this for that, an equal exchange. A profitable exchange.
Why else do you go to work each day?
Your used to working for you, your family, your loved ones and your dreams. I get that, it is the world that we live in. Is that any alternative?
The alternative is to be a father, a mother.
A father is unrelenting, tireless. He cares not for his feelings. Take me. Every time. Take me.
A mother is always open, accepting, loving. No fault matters, I love you. Always.
The alternative is that all of this- this life, this journey, this work-
is bigger than you.
Be a parent, a guardian, a grand father or mother, a friend, a son or a daughter. Not only in your own family, but for all beings.
Both parties profit.
A wonderful post! A good reminder that I may need to keep in my back pocket.
