Asking / offering / giving / receiving is one circular motion. If we don't ask for what we need, if we don't offer what we can, we block the dance. Imagine a person in the middle of the dance floor suddenly not moving while all around him continue on. People would start bumping into each other, losing the beat, losing their sense of direction, tripping over each other's
toes. The dance is dependent on the dancers. Reciprocity is dependent on unceasing exchange.
Christina Baldwin

We have stopped for a moment to encounter each other. To meet, to love, to share. It is a precious moment, but it is transient. It is a little parentheses in eternity. If we share with caring, lightheartedness, and love, we will create abundance and joy for each other, and this moment will have been worthwhile.
Deepak Chopra, M.D.

By attempting to avoid the responsibility for our own behavior, we are giving away our power to some other individual or organization. In this way, millions daily attempt to escape from freedom.
M. Scott Peck
