"There is a wonderful mythical law of nature that the three things we crave most in life - happiness, freedom, and peace of mind - are always attained by giving them to someone else." -Peyton Conway March, Former WWI U.S. Army Chief of Staff, Peyton Conway March books//
The best things in life are free - free to give, that is. It doesn't cost you anything to give friendship, courtesy, praise, compliments, kindness or a smile, yet the receiver of your generosity gains happiness from being treated with respect and dignity. Whenever you are feeling down or saddened, it helps to give to others what you feel that you are lacking in your life. You'll be surprised - your actions will be contagious, and all the goodness that flowed from you will find a return path deeper and wider than whence it came. That 'mythical law of nature,' as March puts it, has a way of rewarding selfless acts, but in order to be a receiver yourself, there must not be selfish motives or intent. Common sense, though, will teach you that certain behaviors produce specific results, and giving abundantly always results in 'happiness, freedom and peace of mind.' None of these acts will cost you a thing, and those who give them cheerfully are the richest of us all. Free yourself to give today, without expecting any reward, and nature will seem to find a way to bring happiness to your door.
