Give and take relationships..

I read somewhere, that the relationships in which you count what someone has done for you and what you have done for someone are not friendship..they are not your friends but creditors if you keep score.

But, most of the relationships that we make these days- are centred around keeping score. You invited me for dinner, now it is my turn..you invited my daughter to play this time, next time I will. You messaged, I replied. You liked my pic, I will like yours ans so on...

But, if you stop messaging, you will stop receiving as well. You stop calling friends and family, they will stop calling you.

This does not mean that you are not kind, compassionate and caring..ditto for your friends and family. Everyone is a wonderful human being, loving and caring. But, we are conditioned to reciprocate. Never to forget the kindness done to us or the hurt that anyone caused us.

There is a severe side-effect of this kind of mentality. You never make the true relationships. You are too busy keeping score..everything being noted in that little diary in your brain, calculating the worth of your efforts and the next party's efforts as well..In this process, the heart is ruled by the mind..

I wish, relationships be free from mathematics and calculations...I wish, we could be childlike again..I wish, even in this age of  pomp and show, nothing else should matter, but warmth and compassion.

I have heard this, It is good to forgive, but it is better to forget..

Be forgetful, be naive, be carefree...

Enjoy life as it comes..

Don't keep score..

Do what you feel like and forget about it...

Life will be even more beautiful!!!
