if a person expect something from you after gifting you then it was never a gift in the first place, a gift should come from the heart and no one should expect something back after gifting someone any time

Understanding this is the "gift" of spending more than half a century on this planet.

I appreciate the point this video is making. There are absolutely people around that won’t give unless something is in it for them, whether it’s praise, the person feeling obligated to return the favor or a reputation of being generous. Wish I had known this sooner!!! And I used to think I was one of those givers that didn’t expect anything in return. And there are absolutely opportunities to give without the receiver being able to give anything back such as giving anonymously. However, God always sees and eventually rewards us. Therefore I do believe we always always receive something back. Maybe just not from the same person, and not always immediately.

Guilting me won't work. If you do something for me that doesn't create a debt, imo. I created my own self-image. In the face of opposition. No one gets to change it.

Hello Christmas!!! Expecting something in return was never set by the Christ!!!! 💯 Nor on just one day of the year. Give freely as it is in your heart to give. ANY DAY, ANY TIME. FACTS!

It’s really hard to watch with the distracting zooming animation. Can you fix this?

If I get a gift from someone and they then bring it up in conversation for control, I will show them exactly where the front door is. I have never let anyone in my life manipulate me, and if they try, they will regret it

Control arrives through rescue. And the hard times you're going through records this huge relief. Dependence and unspoken psychological debt establishes hierarchy. It should just be a gift but what world do we live in?!!
