We do good, of course we don’t expect anything, because we know that’s the role we have to play.
It is our duty to remove the thorns in the way we walk, not only for fear of hurting us, but also to protect other pedestrians.
So even if no one thanks us for our good deeds, it doesn’t detract from the value of the kindness itself.
So what is the meaning of gratitude, let goodness flow from our hands, and let our minds be free from feelings of merit.
Give kindness from your right hand as if your left hand does not know.
