What we contribute is the visible and the invisible, the tangible and the intangible, and the same in the opposite direction. Our development depends on an exchange of contributions. We possess the physical and mental resources that enable us to plan for and approach the achievement of our goals. Various dependencies compel us to seek essential support from others and from nature, thereby drawing us into a continuous cycle of mutual contribution. Contributions can stem from three factors. What we think, feel and do. Ideas and words are shaped by what we have learned, by our unique vision, and by the potential to see things from a broader perspective. What we feel relates to emotions, identification with others, affective or ideological closeness, and bonds of connection. Actions represent a combination of an approach, a desire and their execution. Depending on affinities or dissonances, we can bring a sense of well being to others through what we reveal, or the exact opposite to those who outlook is poles a part from our own. How our expressions are received by others, influenced by personal tastes and values can either draw people closer or drive them apart. Our response to external input is a matter of feeling, whether we feel comfortable or uncomfortable, relaxed or tense, depends on the rapport, the alignment, between both what we think, feel and do ( or whish to do ) We can bring about benefits or lossess, advantages or disadvantages. However, what may initially seem adverse often leads over time to a better situation following the necessary trials. Each person brings a unique quality; it is therefore an opportunity to discover these aptitudes and enjoy or make the most of them within the diversity found in us all.
