The Law of Life
Whatever you give away today Or think or say or do, Will multiple 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 At you. In some clear or secret fashion.
If you speak about some person, A word of praise or two, Soon tens of other people Will speak kind words to you.
Our thoughts are broadcasts of the soul, Not 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’ll send, hate you will get Back... But loving brings love nearer.
Remember, as you start this day, And duty crowds your mind, 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 things we give away.
