… Where there is a joyous mood,
there a comrade will appear to share a glass of wine.
This is the echo awakened in men
through spiritual attraction. Whenever a feeling is voiced with truth and
frankness, whenever a deed is the clear expression of sentiment, a mysterious
and far-reaching influence is exerted. At first it acts on those who are
inwardly receptive. But the circle grows larger and larger. ― I Ching
Wilhelm / Baynes Edition
There is an old expression, “misery
loves company,” which fortunately, I have not heard lately. Actually, I have
created this fortune for myself by shifting from a life if wallowing in regrets
and sadness for lost loves, missed opportunities, and mistakes made to an
attitude of appreciation and gratitude for all That I am and all That I have
now. In my times of misery, I wanted company to hold my hand, cheer me up, and
make me feel OK. Now that I feel cheerful most of the time and jolly much of
the time, I am attracting company who enjoys being around me and who share in
my good spirits by bringing their own happiness with them.
There is also the expression, “a
friend in need is a friend indeed.” Well, yes, if that friend is in need without
being needy of something that I can readily give. I create circles of
prosperity for myself by serving others and by filling the needs that I see. My
best clients are or soon become my friends because the ultimate of good
business and good prosperity comes through the creation and experience of sound
relationships built on trust, respect, and mutual support.
God is said to be a circle whose
center is everywhere and whose circumference is nowhere. The essence of
prosperity contained in any one person permeates each and all of that person’s
intimate and close business relationships. Prosperity is an atmosphere of an
attitude of being, doing, and having everything necessary for an enjoyable
fulfilling life today.
I have friends who participate in
Master Mind groups, others who vision, journal, or share daily prayer with
another or others of like mind. When any one of these people shares a success,
everyone involved with them feels the uplift of success. When one is
challenged, all rise in support with ideas, connections, and most importantly
by knowing that every challenge is a way to step up to higher experiences of
prosperity and that that way shows clearly.
The good we give to each other in
service or support, the listening heart, the love and encouragement, even our
business circulates and returns to us with increase. The more joyfully we
participate in life, the richer is our life and the companionship we attract.
Delight in the moment and know that the delight we feel is a high-frequency
broadcast. Now that is attractive.
I turn within to my spiritual
Source, and recognize that I see my Source in the activity of my world. I think
my thoughts of blessing, drawing the power of Spirit into my consciousness and
see my consciousness reflected in the eyes I meet in every setting. I carry my
blessing with me and spread it around freely as I joyously know that it circulates
back to me multiplied abundantly. Now, I gratefully accept it for so it is.

“First
you ask definitely for direction, then it will enter your consciousness as a
definite thought; then in your turn you give it back the thought and it will
give you back the thing. It answers every question, solves every problem; it is
the solution to every difficulty.” Ernest Holmes
