Trading, a very interesting subject indeed. Though being present for centuries, its amazing how this simple concept has evolved across time. I mean, back in the day people traded gold, pepper, antimony, tea and so forth for various needs of a particular country. In which, it involved the greater good of a population and not simply for one's personal gain. Ah, strong utilitarian mentality back in the day.


Well, to hell with notations like that in our modern era. We hardly ever see such a mindset being put into practice. We don't seem to fathom what our decisions or actions may cause, it's about "what can I do to give me, myself and I an edge". Now, don't get me wrong I am all for self development and improvement but if it means leeching off and being a burden to another, then no. It puzzles me, why can't we be a little less selfish and a little more selfless.

Challenge for the day, go out and do something nice for someone. It doesn't mean buying someone a gift, it could just be paying someone a compliment "Hey, you look nice today :)", providing someone a lift to where they're headed, giving them a call to see how they're doing or any other pleasant gestures. It may be the smallest of deeds but you'll be surprise how it can touch the hardest of hearts.
