Qtip who would have thought about this idea being one that would be very helpful. Well,i think that i will try and see if this fits into my daily life. I have a good feeling it will. Perhaps an idea here that could really make me happier. You know i may just have it embroiled onto a baseball hat,and wear it around. If only to remind me of applying this idea now and again. But it could be fun to meet people who may ask what does qtip stand for. A good opertunity to share something nice,interesting etc. And hey! If it dosen't go over well qtip charles.
Ps i think your right,our brain can not tell the difference between giving and giving love. But i truly feel it needs the chance to decide what the actual experiance is that we are feeling. Love,counts. Big time.

John Pitts wrote: I have recently come to understand that the human need for love is not to be loved or to give love, but to have love in our lives. Our brains can not distingush between getting love and giving love. They both bring love into our hearts. The great thing about giving love is that it not only creates love for us it also creates love in others as well.

The lessons you learned and wrote about are so very powerful. 1 . Mind = autopilot. So true. We are doing something kind but still carry expectations (which build resentments). 2 . Rejection = a big one for me. I am doing something kind and yet you reject me? - that used to bring up either anger or insecurity in me. Now i see it in the true light of it really is "on the receiver" to receive or not- and for me to qtip. Quit taking it personally.

I started bringing him gifts -- tomatoes from my garden, homemade banana bread, sandwiches even. He never acknowledged my gifts. What he did do was ironically call out those who did not acknowledge his presence. I would sometimes see him on other street corners at different times of days calling out ironically "god bless you! " to those who pretended he was invisible. Sometimes we are blessed because we are not blessed.
