HOW TO GIVE… for Peace and Happiness
What does being “Happy” mean to YOU? Does it mean having great relationships?…having vibrant health?…having wealth and luxuries?…having success and accomplishments?…having meaning and life purpose?
Does “Having” = “Happiness“?
Why are there countless stories of “successful” people that seemingly “have it all” and yet are still unhappy? Famous celebrities or business owners that “have” so much, often ”have” just as many problems and sorrows. It’s fantastic to have things, but it sure isn’t the key to happiness.
The grand mistake is to tie happiness with only self-gratification, or “Having”.
So what’s the missing link to connecting “having” to “happiness”?

In order to enjoy “having” in our lives, we must “GIVE”. Giving and receiving are 2 sides of the same coin. You can’t really be happy with just one. It’s incomplete. Having what we want definitely brings us happiness, but it doesn’t give us real inner peace and fulfillment.
The key to true fulfillment is within the complete cycle, and it’s rooted in the “Art of Giving”.
The Art of Giving is giving unconditionally, or without “strings attached”. But it’s not easy to do, because you need to release your ego.
So if you want happiness, give happiness to others. If you want love, be loving. By adding value to people’s lives, we give more value and meaning to our own. It’s the law of reciprocity, cause and effect or karma.
Sounds easy? I thought so too. But how easily can we live it, and practice it in our daily lives?
The secret is, you have to give without expecting anything in return.
This is how most of us get tripped up! Myself included.
Do you know if you give unconditionally or with “strings attached”, like expecting something in return? …..Honestly?
When we give with sincerity it not only feels great, it opens us up to love, peace and miracles. When we give and feel any resentment instead of joy, we’re giving out of obligation or justification of some kind. This just perpetuates the negative cycle of obligation and resentment and seriously limits any feeling of true happiness.
Remember the flow, or cycle of cause and effect? There is also an art to receiving! How We Receive has a huge impact on how we allow the flow of happiness into our lives.
Doesn’t it make sense to know how to take advantage of this? True happiness depends on it!
Don’t Give Back, Just Give… and watch happiness and miracles flash into your life!
