"You're too nice to people!"

"I expect to pass through life but once. If therefore, there be any kindness I can show, or any good thing I can do to any fellow being, let me do it now, and not defer or neglect it, as I shall not pass this way again."

~William Penn

I am constantly getting told that I am too nice - or too sweet - or that I am setting myself up for people to take advantage of me. Let me first say this - I am not an idiot. I am not a pushover. I will not be taken advantage of. I will, however, treat others the way that I would like to be treated. My motivation is not a reward. My reward is in the doing.
