Don't be fooled by this whole New Age crap that tells you that you have to give in order to receive. You may think that it is very noble to give your money and possessions away. But you will go bankrupt before you ever get a thank you from any one of your receivers.
The whole obsession with attracting abundance into your life is a fallacy. People just say that to sell books and to fill seats in workshops and conference centers. Most of us are never going to have an abundance of money. Because abundance is not really about money, it's about love. Sadly, our approach to love is the same as our approach to money. We just can't get enough of it.
Let's face it. We live in a world where there's limited resources. As far as I can tell, it's always been that way. It started with the barter system, where everything was based on a trade. People traded crops for services and services for crops. However, the barter system got a little complicated, when people's services or crops were no longer needed. Then, someone came up with the brilliant idea to create money, a currency system that enabled people to buy whatever they wanted. People started to provide their services and products for money.
The whole concept of money has been pounded in our heads. We have an innate understanding that money is scarce, and we want to make it stretch for as long as possible. We are always looking for the best deal. We are always in search for a bargain. Because we need to make our money last as long as possible.
Similarly, people have this same approach when it comes to love and relationships. They treat love like it's a currency. They will give love, only when they know they are going to get love in return. We treat love as if it's a currency, or some kind of stock option that we can lose money on. Then, we are disappointed when the people we love don't do what we say, or don't behave the way we would have liked them to behave. We treat love like it is some kind of investment. When it starts to tank. We want to toss away our love like it was some kind of cheap knock-off bag.
But we never can avoid the pain of loss. There is no such thing as a love warrantee. If we put our hearts on the line, there is a chance that our hearts might get broken. We suffer from loneliness and longing because we are conditioned to believe that love is scarce. We believe that much like a currency, we have to earn it and make sacrifices to feel love. We enter into these love contracts where we feel so entrapped and restricted because we have to give up so much of ourselves. Then, love becomes nourishing, but it also works to imprison the soul.
When we understand the true essence of love. We can then understand the love is the only resources in life that is abundant. Love can be blissful and everlasting when it comes from within. Self-love it the most powerful form of love. It is a zero risk transaction that is going to increase your bottom line. Because once you learn about self-love, you don't have any more expectations. And you simply allow others to just be who and what they are.
We don't have to lock our love down. Or treat love as if it is our last dollar in our pocket. Once we understand the true meaning of love, we can start to write love checks, as if we have billions of dollars in the bank. When we began to understand our true worth, we no longer look for others to fulfill our needs. Because we understand that no one can love us better than we can love ourselves. This is why people say that it is much better to give than to receive.
