Boomerang Life

Sowing and Reaping, Golden Rule, Karma, etc. are the motivations we use for giving. We live for the law of the boomerang. But my neighbor’s gardener knocked on the door and asked my wife if he could buy some Mangos off our Mango tree. She told them, “NO!” with emphasis and proceeded, “You can have some Mangos but you don’t need to pay us.” Here comes the boomerang… The young gardener said, “Well let us mow your lawn and we’ll come back and tend to these dead Birds of Paradise.” So they mowed it and this morning they came back and the barter was on again. And truthfully, I wasn’t even trippin’ about the Mangos but I appreciated that kindness seems to beget kindness even in 2014.
