What's hiding beneath

Unfortunately, most of the time when it comes to people, it’s never just “give” or just “do.” It’s usually, “What am I going to get back?” We’re always thinking about what we’re going to get in return. Doing something totally agenda-free is very difficult for us. If we don’t get exactly what we gave in return, we at least want some kind of acknowledgment. That’s also conditional, and the benefit is temporary, negligible. We need to strive for things that last. The only thing we should want in return is our own Light, our own fulfillment. Meaning, if you are in a relationship, just give and don’t worry what you will get in return. When we give with our whole heart, the energy will come back. It doesn’t make a difference if the returns come from that person or from someone else. What we should be focusing on is the real exchange: that with the Light of the Creator. If we want to be a vessel for the Light, we have to act like the Light. One way to do this is by giving unconditionally. Often we want to give conditionally, but we want people to give to us unconditionally. The universe just doesn’t work that way. If you are conditional, then you will end up with people in your life who are conditional. If we are always looking for what we will get in return, we will be building a home for chaos. If you want to build a place for Light to shine, then give and let go. Release your desire of what you could get back. We have to find the strength to do one-way sharing. Obviously, we cannot continually give to someone who does nothing in return and promote Bread of Shame. But in the normal course, open your heart and give to others without expecting a return. If it comes back from those people, that’s great. We all have agendas, and we have gone through lifetimes of training to conceal them. But by doing so, we’re creating a mask that we want people to see instead of allowing them to see who we really are. Some people have built a turtle shell around themselves; some have built a thin layer; but it’s hard to connect to one another through these barriers. We have to share from the deeper, uncovered, true essence of self.
