There Is Great Joy In the Balance of Giving and Receiving

Allow yourself the pleasure of receiving love and service. Allow yourself the pleasure of loving and serving. There is great joy in the balance of giving and receiving. Those who allow themselves only to give wind up resentful and angry, or lonely and depressed. Many of them choose not to stay in physical incarnation very long. Those who allow themselves only to receive are living half a life. They wind up mystified as to why they are not happy. "I have everything I could possibly want? Why am I so depressed?" The answer is balance. Give when you are able. Ask for what you want, and accept the answer, yes or no, with equanimity.
