Transactions in relationships

We tend to hold a balance sheet of what we have done for someone in our subconscious. It is a very natural human tendency and the best and nicest of us do it.

What we don’t see with our conscious mind is bigger picture of these transactions. We limit ourselves to one lifetime and one body. These transactions can be pending across lifetimes and through our family unit.

We sometimes reap the benefits of our ancestors good deeps and sometimes pay their debts.

We are born indebted to our mother for giving us life. No matter how much we serve her, we can never make up.

We carry the benefits of the generations that stood before us and withstood the storms so we receive shelter. The generation after us owe it to us and the cycle continues.

This even applies to our prayers with God. Are we making deals with Him or are we being grateful for His love.

As we transact thought relationships, here are some fundamentals to live by.

One can only give what one has received

Ever wondered why we don’t get reciprocated with the same love that we give?

People can give only what they have in them and what they have received through time.

The reciprocation can never look even. May be you are receiving what they have and you can’t see it because you are waiting to receive what you gave.

This loop can be debilitating and can break relationships.

Give from a place of abundance

You are rich with qualities and virtues and hence you give

Maybe see what you have received and not acknowledged

The law of averages takes care of the giving and receiving

You do your job and rest will follow

Operate from abundance and invite abundance
