I think...
The need for connection and giving/sharing is universal in our species.
Our society has just become so competative that we think in terms of war slogans like: Kill or be killed, all's fair in love and war, god bless the child who has his own, get your's before someone get's you...
The scientists say that evolution takes tens of thousands of years, that we are still hunter/gatherers biologically speaking. A time when it took a village to raise a child.
I use this approach to do the same things these good people have been saying. Love youself, give compassion without controlling, expecting or judging.
I don't always get it right, but I love my life now that I actively embrace these ideals.
