What goes around, comes around, doesn't it?

"Life is a perpetual instruction in cause and effect."
~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Someone close to you is acting like a real jerk and you want to smack them. But you are a "spiritual" person, so you sit back and say with a nodding head, "What goes around, comes around."

When we wish revenge for someone, or we're smug and content because we know they'll get theirs in the end, we are acting as channels of judgment. And just as a cold cup becomes scalding when you add red-hot coffee, we too take on the energy of the judgment we wish upon others. No matter how perfect we think we are in comparison to that person, trust me, we've get our own negative files we'd rather not have reviewed.

That's why we always want to be on the side of mercy and in the frame of helping the situation, not contributing to the problem.

Today, focus on your ex-husband, your ex-employer, your ex-friend, or anyone you've been waiting for cause and effect to pounce on, and ask for mercy for them. Believe me, you need it.
