Thinking about giving gifts, and not receiving them motivates people to help others. A new study published in Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science, suggests that thinking about what we've given, rather than what we've received, may lead us to be more helpful toward others.
And this is something I understand completely! There is something about GIVING to others, however small it may be, that just makes you FEEL better. Sharing what you have without ANY expectation of return. But, how what a return you truly give yourself by doing so! I love it and do it as often as possible. In fact, according to my husband, FAR too often!
