Being at the middle, you are at a balance of what you give and take. Not being wholly of yourself nor others, is the science of achieving the great. People who are wholly of themselves do not know the science of giving. People who are wholly of others do not know the science of taking.
People who can’t give, do not know the means of gaining things of greater value. People who can’t take, do not know the comfort of helping themselves out. To achieve the great is to know when to give and take. Never go the far end of the former or the latter for it either makes you a slave or a thief, and neither is favored in life.
Never give or take too much for you disturb the balance where the relationship becomes shaky of suspicion and distrust. The art of giving and taking is truly the science of achieving greatness in one’s life. Learn the balance, the middle point, what the greats had mastered through thoughts and actions.
