Little girl and her father were crossing a bridge.
The father was kind of scared so he asked his little
daughter,
‘Sweetheart, please hold my hand so that you don’t
fall into the river.’
The little girl said, ‘No, Dad. You hold my hand.’
‘What’s the difference?’ Asked the puzzled father.
‘There’s a big difference,’ replied the little girl.
‘If I hold your hand and something happens to me,
chances are that I may let your hand go.
But if you hold my hand, I know for sure that no
matter what happens,
you will never let my hand go.’
In any relationship, the essence of trust is not in
its bind, but in its bond.
So hold the hand of the person who loves you rather
than expecting them to hold yours…
This message is too short……but carries a lot of
Feelings.

What is non-objective relation?
Wherever there are others there is a self,
Wherever there are no others there can be no self,
Wherever there is no self there are no others,
Because in the absence of self I am all others.
That is non-objective relation.
