I think it was Zig Zigler who said something like, “If you help enough other people get what they want you will automatically get what you want.” Which sounds to me a lot like; “you reap what you sow”, the Law of Karma, and Newton’s Law (For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction). For this reason, in my class, I taught, Give selfishly, which probably seems like an oxymoron to most. But, really, it’s the Truth. IF you are conscious of The Law, you Know that what you give comes back multiplied, you are in essence giving selfishly. And why wouldn’t you? For this is an ever expanding Universe and if you are to expand with it by “using well God’s gifts” (giving them to others) your gifts expand also.
During this time of year we celebrate by giving gifts. This seems to be the physical example of what we should be doing every day with our non-material (and material) resources.
So, look at the gifts you have and give of them. In not giving them, you are hording. Hording is an action coming from fear. More specifically, the fear of lack (there isn’t or won’t be enough to go around) or the F.E.A.R. (False Evidence Appearing Real) of what others may think about us. What are the gifts that you have that you have not been giving? Can you give more kindness, knowledge, time or other resources that exist in your life? Who is near you that would happily accept those gifts?
And remember the Universe (God) loves cheerful givers. So, have fun giving selfishly!
