"Whatever you think people are withholding from..." - Quote by Eckhart Tolle
Whatever you think people are withholding from you-praise, appreciation, assistance, loving care, and so on-give it to them.

“Forgiveness of the present is even more important than forgiveness of the past. If you forgive every moment - allow it to be as it is - then there will be no accumulation of resentment that needs to be forgiven at some later time.”
“I've always enjoyed being in the background, sitting in a cafe, watching people. But now, when I sit in a cafe, sometimes people watch me. It's a challenge. But it's usually people who want to say 'your book transformed my life', or something... so then I'm joyful. One moment before, I didn't want them to recognise me, but when they do, I'm glad.”
“Whatever the ego seeks and gets attached to are substitutes for the Being that it cannot feel.”
More on Giving
“My wife, my family, my friends - they've all taught me things about love and what that emotion really means. In a nutshell, loving someone is about giving, not receiving.”
“From what we get, we can make a living; what we give, however, makes a life.”
“One cannot give what he does not possess. To give love you must possess love. To love others you must love yourself.”
More on Receiving
“Should not the giver be thankful that the receiver received? Is not giving a need? Is not receiving, mercy?”
“GRACE: All you can do is take it.”
“As you awaken you go beyond the need to perform and achieve when you go beyond it, you begin to develop an increased susceptibility to the love extended by others as well as the uncontrollable urge to extend it. Love becomes what you are.”
