life: acoustic & amplified

poetry, quotes & thoughts about life

Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck. – The Dalai Lama

To get the most success out of life have no agenda other than to give whatever you can in the present moment. A smile, a laugh, a quarter, a helping hand, an introduction or just your listening ear is more powerful than you can imagine. Beneath every gift is the knowing that the Universe is abundant and that you lose nothing by giving away what you have. Others will feel comfortable in your presence and all good things will find you – WITHOUT seeking them.

    It is so true that in giving we always feel so good. When we take it can feel so hollow. And when we give and then receive love and understanding in return, it is true joy. Thank you for this post !
