It feels like I haven’t posted in so long, though it’s only been a week or even less.
But when one gets busy, the mind can’t concentrate in too many things at once, can it?
By the way, this post isn’t about money.
They say creditors have better memories than debtors.
And of course, that makes perfect sense in the financial world.
The lender with the upper, steady hand would by all means save, register, and arrange all the details of the transaction.
On the other side, the borrower, with the lower, shakier hand, would delay, delete, or even freeze any memory of what’s owed or what should be paid back.
Right.
Now… do things work the same way in the non–financial sides of life?
In those close relationships — with family, friends, neighbours, and even those brief but meaningful acquaintances who pass through our days?
Would there still be creditors and debtors?
And if so, who would you think have a better memory?
Well… things happen, right?
But let’s stay on the positive side.
Love, kindness, forgiveness, and all the other beautiful traits we offer to those close, special ones — comes with no conditions, no deadlines for return, no legal action to take, and no double interest added for any delay.
So no— there are no creditors, no lenders in these relationships.
There are only the givers, with calm, warm hands,
who save a good memory with no alignment, no regret, and no remorse.
The receivers here are not borrowers with shaky hands.
No.
They are the blessed, the fortunate ones.
They can even hold a better memory than the givers, if only they honour kindness with gratitude.
Sometimes we just need to think positively.
even when the world seems to focus only on creditors and debtors.
Still, there are kind humans and grateful ones
too.
With kind and grateful thoughts,
Nahla
