"The Law of Life"

Found in some old email:

THE LAW OF LIFE
Whatever you give away today
or think or say or do
will multiply about tenfold
and then return to you.
It may not come immediately,
nor from the obvious source,
but the LAW applies unfailingly
through some invisible force.
Whatever you feel about another,
be it love or hate or passion,
will surely bounce right back to you
in some clear or secret fashion.
If you speak about some person,
a word of praise of two,
soon tons of other people
will speak kind words to you.
Our thoughts are broadcasts of the soul, not the secrets of the brain.
Kind ones bring us happiness,
petty ones, untold pain.
Giving works as surely as
reflections in a mirror.
If hate you send, hate you'll get back,
but loving brings love nearer.
Remember, as you start this day,
and duty crowds you mind
that kindness comes so quickly back,
to those who first are kind!
Let that thought and this one
Direct you through each day....
The only things we ever keep
are the things we give away!

  1. I'm new to the blogging scene and found your blog through the Secular Franciscan Order link in your interests. Nice sites, though I couldn't figure out how to post a comment on your other site. Oh and holy cow, a ND fan also, Go Irish!!! Can't wait for Saturdays game. Sounds like you might be along the eastern coast, hope all is well. Peace.

  2. Thanks for your comments! Yes, we're on the Eastern seaboard. Just rain & some wind here, nothing damaging--all inconvenience. In the scheme of things, we are very blessed.
