What goes around, comes around. It’s true. Some call it karma. You receive what you put out there. Sometimes what we want so, so much is something we are not giving. And because we don’t give it, we never receive it. What do you think other people see when they look at you or what do you think they feel “comes from you” once they’ve been around you for a little while?
Be kind. Be fair. Be honest. Be true. And all of these things will come back to you. What goes around, comes around.
Do you give off joy, happiness, love and inclusiveness? Your “vibe”, your “energy” attracts more of the same to you. Whether it’s good or bad. Once you get to the place where you are not focused on what you are receiving, but instead you are focused on what you are giving, your life will change. And it will change drastically and for the better.
Kindness, fairness, honesty and truth are things that all of us want. But do all of us give them? I’m taking a personal, honest inventory of me. I pray that I “give off” these things, but I can do better. There’s always room for improvement.
I had the husband of a friend contact me a few years ago. He was very upset and “needed to talk to someone who knew his wife”. He wanted someone to “talk some sense into her”. I agreed to hear him out. He was upset because his wife (my friend) had filed for divorce very suddenly. He was just “devastated” that she hadn’t been honest with him. I almost choked. I asked, “Are you serious? You’re upset because you expected honesty from someone that you’ve had 3 affairs on (that she had found out about–there were probably more) and kept an entire other life from her? You expected honesty?” Our conversation ended shortly thereafter.
You cannot expect to receive something that you do not give. That’s not the way life works. Whatever you do, more of it is attracted back to you.
Give good, do good and more good will come back to you.
Sending you blessings of love and gratitude from Sterrett, Alabama!
