Boomerangs

ByThe Dude
“The game of life is a game of boomerangs. Our thoughts, deeds and words return to us sooner or later with astounding accuracy.”
~Florence Scovel Shinn~

Everything you throw out there comes back around.

Kindness, complaints, grudges, good energy — doesn’t matter what it is, it’s making a loop and heading back toward you eventually.

So the real question isn’t “what am I dealing with today.” It’s “what did I throw out there yesterday.”

Throw good stuff. It’s coming back either way.

Thought for the Day
Watch what you throw. It’s coming back.
