When Offering
- Offer gently — never with pressure or obligation.
- Trade what you’ve made or what you’ve carried with care.
- Words, memories, or letters are fair currency.
When Receiving
- Receive with gratitude. Even quiet things have weight.
- Don’t ask what it’s worth — ask what it holds.
- Always leave a trace of kindness behind.
What Not to Trade
- No sharp promises.
- No names that still ache.
- No debt disguised as gift.
