Reciprocity

Great words, especially in these times of needs when news on TV is full of stories of charity organizations working overtime to assist the needy.

“Whenever you feel ‘short’ or in ‘need’ of something, give what you want first and it will come back in buckets. That is true for money, a smile, love and friendship. I know it is often the last thing a person may want to do, but it has always worked for me. I just trust that the principle of reciprocity is true, and I give what I want.”

Who is knocking?

“What is opportunity, and when does it knock? It never knocks. You can wait a whole lifetime, listening, hoping and you will hear no knocking. None at all. You are opportunity, and you must knock on the door leading to your destiny.”

Big sorrows

My heart is so small
it’s almost invisible.
How can You place such big sorrows in it?
“Look,” He answered,
“your eyes are even smaller,
yet they behold the world.”

Build your wings

This sounds vaguely similar to the definition of faith I once heard, see On faith and More on faith. I guess, from time to time, it is “healthy” to push yourself off the edge and fall head-first into the unknown…

If we listened to our intellect, we’d never have a love affair. We’d never have a friendship. We’d never go into business, because we’d be cynical. Well, that’s nonsense. You’ve got to jump off cliffs all the time and build your wings on the way down.

You are needed

When this quote appeared in my email Inbox courtesy of the newsletter I subscribe to, I could not help but a smile. What a wonderful, wonderful idea!

You have a solemn obligation to take care of yourself, because you never know when the World will need you.
