When does "DEBT OF GRATITIDE" end?

Tweet

Debt of gratitude is born out of something that somebody has done for you in exchange of noting or without any payment. No amount or even a hundred thank you's would not even be enough to compensate the deed. But until when would the "debt" end? Personally, debt of gratitude lasts until death. It's really trivial how you owe somebody something that is life-long. An example is when parents send their children to school. While it's true that graduating from school is you and your parents achievement, it doesn't stop there. You owe them your education eternally. Debt of gratitude for that matter is something that we should look at positively. I hear of some scenerios that somebody was hired to kill in exchage of his debt of gratitide from a politician. This is a wrong notion of what debt of gratitide is all about. Generally, it should create a harmonious and generous environment where "giving is better than receiving"
