The gift is therefore a form of active resistance employed to contrast the pervasive temptations of strongly individualistic life models, that have nothing to do with the legitimate attestation of one's own identity but, on the contrary, it is mortified by the disregard of its ontologically relational, open and available nature characterized by form of free and otherness.
The gift, in the reciprocity of giving and receiving, wants to be proof of openness and trust in a humanity that recognizes itself fragile and the act of giving the coherent ways, to face up with the transformations and opportunities of the present time and to preserve the "staying humanity".
