Many people only go to see other people when they want to ask for some favour.
In "The Woman Who Walked in Sunshine," Alexander McCall Smith explores the theme of social interactions, suggesting that many individuals often seek out others primarily when they need assistance. This perspective highlights a common behavior in human relationships where requests for favors can overshadow genuine social connections.
This notion invites reflection on the nature of friendships and community ties, urging readers to consider the importance of reaching out to others not just in times of need but also to nurture relationships. The book encourages a more balanced approach to social engagement, where connections are valued beyond transactional interactions.
