I was reminded of a quote by Annie Dillard. She talks about writing and sharing her knowledge, but it's also about giving: Anything you do not give freely and abundantly becomes lost to you. You open your safe and find ashes.
How should gifts given with a stick or an electric prod in hand and with the demand to completely distance yourself from all types of friends or relatives be interpreted or appreciated?
Living, being ethical through our giving and receiving - such amazing thinking, teaching, writing by Seneca! And yet another amazing teaching and writing essay...thank you, Massimo!

Also, consider giving with a warm heart not a cold hand. Have a will, of course but don’t want till you croak to be generous.
