Like most people, I was brought up to look upon life as a process of getting. It was not until in
my
late
thirties
that
I
made
this
important
discovery:
giving
away
makes
life
so
much
more
exciting.
One
discovery
I
made
about
giving
away
anything
in
this
world
without
getting
something back, though the return often comes in an unexpected form. One Sunday morning the
local
post
office
delivered
an
important
special
delivery
letter
to
my
home,
though
it
was
addressed to me at my office. I wrote the postmaster a note of appreciation. More than a year
later I needed a post-office box for a new business I was starting. I was told at the window that
there were no boxes left, and that my name would have to go on a long waiting list.
As I was
about to leave, the postmaster appeared in the doorway.
He had overheard
our conversation.
“
Wasn
’
t
it
you
that
wrote
us
that
letter
a
year
ago
about
delivering
a
special
delivery
to
your
home?
”
I said it was.
“
Well, you certainly are going to have a box in this post office if we have to
make one for you. You don
’
t know what a letter like that means to us. We usually get nothing but
complaints.
