" A son says to his Mother: " Mother, today I fought with my friend." His Mother says: " Why did you fight with your friend?" " Because he demanded something of me, and I would not give it to him." " Why did you not give it to him?" " Because it was mine." " My son, you now have possessions, but you do not have your friend. Which would you rather have?" " My friend." " Then give freely, trusting that you will also be given what you need. "
