When we give thanks to those in our lives who have supported us and helped make our lives better, we open ourselves up to a new world. We open ourselves up to receive thanks and not just give thanks. You see, energy is reciprocal not conditional. When we give thanks without the expectation of receiving, that is when we actually receive thanks. It takes a conscious effort and it takes time to learn and practice this. Especially in our world, where things are conditional and expected to happen instantaneously. But that is not how life works. Life works on its own terms. There is always a giving and receiving in life. It may not appear that way but that is how life works. And when we align ourselves with this flow of life, we open up to giving and receiving thanks. And that is a wonderful thing.
Namaste, my friends.
