I'm finding that the more I worry about money, the less I have of it. Crazy things keep happening to drain my bank account. So I've stopped giving a fark.
What I have discovered in life goes one step further. I have found that when I give back from what I have, I end up with more.
One of the first catalysts for my lesson occurred when I was a newly single Mom of an 8 year old son who needed some medical care. Long story aside, I met a woman who was even worse off than we were, and I gave her some cash, with no expectation of a return. Voila! Within a couple of days I had enough money to get my son's care, turn on the electric and catch up on car payments.
The key is - no expectation of return.
