"You Have Not Lived Today Until You Have Done Something For Someone Who Cannot Pay You Back" -John Bunyan "The Pilgram's Progress"

I can't tell you how many times I get caught up with my own problems. It's a natural human instinct, to think about you and yourselve first most but lately I've found that the more concerned I am with my troubles, the bigger they seem to be. But whenever I give back to others, whether it be through a compliment, listening to them, or smiling to a (cute) stranger, I find that what I'm worried about can be so insignificant in the greater scheme of things.

If you want to be happy, make someone else happy.
If you want to see your dreams come to pass, help someone with one of their goals.
What you make happen for others, God will make happen for you.

You get what you give. If your planting seeds of negativity and worries why is it that your surprised that your sad? At the same time, if your sowing seeds of purpose, of positivity and joy? Then your gonna be seeing smiley faces around you with rainbows. If you help others, God will pay you back exponentially because He doesn't want to be in debt with others!

So stop being selfish with your time, money, and resources and start opening your hands. Sharing your time to help someone and using your money to buy lunch for someone (special). Don't live for yourself, learn to give yourself away, and your life will make a difference. Expect only to get the good things God has in store for you when you have open and giving hands..

Time to sow some seeds.
Smiley face!
