Nothing is for free

When I first thought about it... 

I thought no... There must be something for free... 

Like mother's love for example. However, when I really drowned into thinking about that, I really found out that nothing is for free....

You see, everything you get, you pay for.

Either you pay for it materialistically or spiritually… 

In order to get anything, you will have to pay something in return... 

You pay money for the things you need to buy... 

You pay time, energy, and social life at work, to get money, career and to fulfill your dreams…

You pay your free will to choose items around the house, as a price for having someone to share this house with... 

Okay, so everything has a price... Super!

Friends and loved ones are not like that, right??

They are there whenever you need them...

In every corner of your life they will be there, trying to cheer you up in your downs and cheer long your side when you are happy... 

As much as I love this idea and truly want to believe it is true... It is not... 

Everyone wants something in return… Including you... 

Your friends and loved ones are there for you, because someday you were by their side when they needed you, or they know they can count on you if anything happens... 

So it is not really something materialistic that you can hold with your own hands... They want the spiritual income that would be given to them.

That does not make anyone evil, it is just the way things go, even if you deny it... 

Try for example to ignore calls from your friends, don't reply, don't text back, bail every time they hang out and see how they will react to this...

They will be mad... Because they expect that their friend will be there.. to hang out, talk or whatever.

Is this care?

Yes it is a kind of care.. But also, need for payback... (in a way or another).

You do this as well by the way, you are not an angel, you are a human being... 

It is all about the human relationships, give-take relations... 

Every relation, every kind and everything.

I am not sure why I am writing this now, and I don't know what I wrote but this is a topic has been in my head for a couple of days now....

Nothing is for free.
