Time Enough For Love

Xenia » My House Is Your House

September 08th, 2008

Another concept in the context of “love” and the ancient Greek definitions is Xenia:

My House Is Your House.

I always called this “Open Door Principle”. Anyone is welcome any time.

There is a simple rule I get very upset if it is ignored: You are guest. You do not own the place for being offered my hospitality. I happily share what I have, but the rules of courtesy and my household are applied. And I shared even to people I did not know in case of need. And made “friends” doing so.

The most common rules for anything applied to the ancient Greek rules:

Trust, Respect and Honesty

Dear Jürgen,

you really are example of bringing into life what you tell here: Trust, Respect, Honesty. It’s a very pleasant surprise to know there are such people in life still existing. It is one of the reasons to trust other people also.

You deserve the same from others, and I hope you get this feedback of real friendship, now and many times after.

Now you have one more friend, and this is what really deserves to be proud of.

Good luck to your big heart!

Your new FRIEND
