The Joy of Your Karma

I find it funny when I hear people talking about "divine intervention" or " The Universe" or my favorite, "karma".

Now there are some people that I know have a clear understanding of what they are talking about.  Others they really just say it because it's something people say when this or that happens.  You know like, "look out, karma's a bitch".

Let's get something clear karma is definitely not a bitch, but say it again and I might be, just kidding.  It is important to me that people understand that karma is not about reciprocity.  Karma is about getting what you give.  Saying again, it is not about reciprocity.  You cannot give to get, but you do not get what you do not give.

If you put out an abundance of love and generosity of spirit, you will receive the same in return.  If you only put out meager, conditional love and are greedy with your light, you will receive the same in return.

This was brought home to me by several friends.  I kept marveling at all of the blessings in my life and they kept saying that I deserve every one because that is who I am to others.  And what's funny is I  know I am that way to others because people are that way to me.

If we give joy, we get joy.  If we are love, we have love.  It seems simple enough.  In fact, it is simple.  The only thing that gets in our way is...ego!  Yeah, that pesky ego wants to throw a wrench into the whole thing.  When you start thinking you deserve something instead of marveling at the gifts you have received, that's when you know your ego got in the way, again.

The idea of reward, reciprocity, entitlement or any other such nonsense will get you in a mess in a hurry.  We are here to be in service to one another.  If everyone were on the same page, no one would ever want for anything.  There would be always someone there to provide what is needed.

So, in an effort to expand good energy going out into the Universe, say it with me ~

The joy of your karma is that your karma is your joy!

Give and you shall receive my friends!
