• One person does a good deed and wants credit — they treat it like a transaction: “You owe me now.”
• Another doesn’t seek outward praise, but still remembers the deed and feels internally that the other person owes him.
• The third is different: he does good naturally, without keeping score, like a vine producing grapes. The vine doesn’t brag about the grapes — it just grows.
Similarly:
• The horse runs, the dog hunts, the bee makes honey — and they don’t make a fuss.
• A good person simply does good, and moves on to the next right act.
Marcus says: Be this third kind.
