"I believe that when we treat people as resources that's when the trouble
begins. We typically use up our resources...expend them...and when that
happens to people,...oh, well. I prefer to think of it in a different
way...we are people with resources (gifts and talents)..."

This is not the definition of resources. I encourage everyone to pick up
the dictionary and read it. Think of a resource as meeting all the
definitions. Then you will have a rich understanding of the term. And it
is not even a little bit about "using it up". It is actually a strength
that we turn to whenever we are in need.
