Whether you realize it or not, you're throwing the boomerang today. As
you may know, a boomerang is an angular club you toss away from you
that eventually returns to you. In the game of life, you throw the
boomerang daily, in the form of actions and behaviours that you send out
into the world, and that return to you at some later date -- often multiplied
on the rebound.
You've probably heard this principle stated in different ways, including
"What goes around comes around." Or the Biblical phrases "Give and it
shall be given unto you" and "As you sow, so shall you reap."
But how does this principle apply to your day-to-day life?
Simply put, if you treat others with love and respect, you will find that
others will generally love and respect you.
If you serve others, you will likely be served. Of course, this "law" also
applies to negative behaviors. If you are critical and judgmental, don't be
surprised when you are criticized and judged.
By the way, you don't always receive precisely what you send out. For
example, you might steal money from others and rather than having
money stolen from you in return, you could wind up in jail. But whatever
the specific response, negative consequences always follow dishonest,
unscrupulous actions, whereas positive results flow from fair and
honorable efforts.
Before we continue, let's clear up some misconceptions about the
boomerang principle. Many people don't believe in it because they fail to
view it with a long-term perspective.
In fact, the return for your actions is seldom immediate.
There is often a long delay between your actions and the rebounding
consequences.
So, if you feel that you are living a "good life" -- that you are helping
others, being loyal to your friends, creative in business, and loving to your
family -- and that you have yet to receive any great reward, don't despair.
First of all, you might be overlooking the blessings that already exist in
your life.
Or, you may consider what Ralph Waldo Emerson believed about delayed
rewards -- that your good deeds are earning compound interest in the
"universal bank," building up value over time, and that, one day, you will
receive handsome dividends. It is in this fashion that the universe rewards
persistent people who diligently plod away at their ultimate goal ... and
then (suddenly, it seems) attain outrageous success!
People also have trouble with the boomerang principle because they look
for the return to come from the same person to whom they gave
something. It doesn't usually work that way. You'll never know where the
return will be coming from -- or when it will arrive -- but it always comes.
Perhaps the most useful way to observe this principle in action is to look
at it "in reverse." In other words, focus on what is coming to you in life --
that will tell you what you have been sending out.
Thus, if you aren't receiving something that you want (e.g., friendship,
love or honesty), consider the possibility that
you have been withholding these things from those around
you. What you withhold from others will be withheld from you. When you
start giving these things, you will activate the flow back to yourself.
It's really quite simple: send it out and receive it back.
So, if you want to receive love ... give love. If you want people to
appreciate you ... show your appreciation for others. And, if you want
others to help you, then lend a helping hand yourself.
You have the power to create the life you want. It all depends on how you
throw the boomerang!

A great little book for you to read: "freedom from fear" by Mark Matteson.
A passage from within:....
To live without fear is one of life's chief aims.
Why Worry?
There are only 2 things to worry about...
Either you are sick or you are well.
If you are well, then there is nothing to worry about, but if you are sick,
there are only 2 things to worry about...
Either you will get well or you will die.
If you get well, there is nothing to worry about, but if you die, there are
only 2 things to worry about...
Either you will go to heaven or hell.
If you go to heaven, there is nothing to worry about.
If you go to hell, you will be so busy shaking hands with old friends that
you will not have time to worry!!
Denise Romas (Lyrics from her new CD - Now available from CDbaby.

I will send you a healing angel to wipe your tears away
I will send you a healing angel to watch over you each day
I will send you a healing angel whenever you are blue
I will send you a healing angel, that’s what I’ll do
When you are feeling vulnerable and you don’t know where to turn
When life is filled with hardships and you feel like you’ve been burned
When you have a heaviness and ache in your heart
When your head hits the pillow and you’re crying in the dark
I will send you a healing angel...
The Paradoxical Commandments
by Dr. Kent M. Keith
People are illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered.
Love them anyway.
If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives.
Do good anyway.
If you are successful, you win false friends and true enemies.
Succeed anyway.
The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.
Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable.
Be honest and frank anyway.
The biggest men and women with the biggest ideas can be shot down by
the smallest men and women with the smallest minds.
Think big anyway.
People favor underdogs but follow only top dogs.
Fight for a few underdogs anyway.
What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight.
Build anyway.
People really need help but may attack you if you do help them.
Help people anyway.
Give the world the best you have and you'll get kicked in the teeth.
Give the world the best you have anyway.
