When we strive to get what we don’t have, but think will give us happiness, we can get stress symptoms such as headaches, raised blood pressure, muscle aches from holding tension, and more

Giving without expectation of a similar favor preserves our deep sense of personal harmony and peace

When we rely on an outside source for happiness, we create tension and stress in our mind and body; we can never be sure we are going to get what we need to make us feel complete. To feel harmonious in our mind and body means we must provide our own happiness, internally and externally; not be dependent on another person or source to make us happy. Giving without expectation of a similar favor preserves our deep sense of personal harmony and peace; it is loving without leaning.
