Probably the most liberating state of being is when you accept not all the people you nurture or have nurtured in your past are going to come through for you. This is good, because you shouldn't have had that expectation in the first place. Just be, give and receive in grace but don't wait for the thank you or kill the gift of receiving with too much generosity in reciprocation - it's ok - people can be good to one another without an agenda. Go forth and conquer. Having lived this way now for at least 15 years it still amazes me how uncomfortable people feel in a non agenda situation. It's like you've removed the rules and it takes them a few weeks of hesitance before they accept there is no expectation of reciprococity and each time that happens I feel we're making a small inroad on expanding the empire of No Agendas.
