Giving is Receiving

Posted by Howard McQueen on December 4, 2009 at 11:30pm
(c) 2009 Howard McQueenWhat better way to learn to give love and compassion,than to feel all the sufferingand experience the darkest dramas of the mind.What better way to stumble into Oneness,than to have felt the pain of seemingly being completely separate, cutoff and alone.What better way to learn that giving is receiving,than to have tried most of a lifetime to get,or manipulate others to giveto fill the void of one who felt so very needy.Joy unfolds in acceptance and surrenderto what has covered over the heart.Cherish and nourish your authentic self,let it guide you to abundance,and with complete abandon,radiate the wholeless of what you really are,outwards to your world.This is the energetic signature of the cosmos.The sun gives its radiance without consideration.The earth grows and sprouts life because it can.The ocean hosts and nourishes a vastness of life forms,orchestrating all this aligned with the rising and falling of the tides.There are no conditions attached to the outcomes.Life flourishes and evolves through unconditional giving.Giving is receiving.All else is taking from.~~~ *** ~~~ ** ~~ * ~We have been trained and conditioned to believe that we have to take to receive. This belief system is the root of scarcity and breeds competition for what need not be scarce, and, as a result, our world tumbles out of balance.It may be that you have yet to connect to your abundance. If so, consider investing in the book referenced below.This posting inspired by Session #9 of Michael Brown's book, The Presence Process
