Only Pure Intention Counts

If, From the amount of kindness Of Any given act of altruism performed, We subtract, All selfish motivations that may have prompted Someone to carry out that work of Benevolence, Then The remaining sum, is what is considered to be, Kindness' sum of pure intention and only that is Expected to be credited to one’s heavenly Account! © Demetrios Trifiatis 19 January 2016

So many hidden agendas that factor into the equation . . . a prideful heart that wants recognition! Nicely done dear friend.

So wonderful to see you again , my friend, David! You are so right about the difficulty of the equation BUT the one who solves it is the GREAT Mathematician Himself thus no problem will arise! Thank you so much for commenting in such a fine way!
