Catching Up on a Friday Afternoon

Catching Up on a Friday Afternoon is a short novel. It studies altruism and its effect on the giver and the receiver. The culture of "take-and-thanks" is a social balm that spreads laughter and warmth. In thankless communities and homes, where the sense of entitlement seems to surpass the sense of worth, we need to elevate the culture of "take-and-thanks." It heals the giver and the receiver. One knows kindness is virtuous; the other knows humility, too, is virtuous. Interdependence seals it all.
