Whatever you give away today,

or think or say or do

will multiply 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 to 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 of 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 send, hate you'll get back,

but loving brings love nearer.

 

Remember, as you start this day

and duty crowds your mind,

that kindness comes so quickly back

to those who first are kind.

 

Let that thought and this one

direct us through each day.

The only things we ever keep

are the things we give away.
