I have experienced
that giving has a natural flow;
flowers open to receive their gift
of sun and rain,
then splash vibrant colors
across a green canvas;
seedlings sprout:
green things feed elk, deer and caribou.
pollen and seeds abound
for insects and birds to live upon.

Can I emulate this giving side of nature?
when I give freely,
wanting nothing in return,
the energy of plenty attracts;
I receive much more
then I ever gave away

The act of taking is energy-wise inefficient:
it requires great expenditure of energy
to indulge the illusion of “taking” –
for “taking” is repulsive energy:
that which one seeks is pushed away
and must be chased... or lost.

All organized “Systems” are takers:
governments, banks, businesses or churches;
they all chase the illusive “dollar”
and all wallow in dishonesty and corruption.
When we understand how energy flows
we can see it could not be otherwise,
for taking causes an ever-growing debt;
a net loss of ‘income’ or gift of life.

Corruption and lies are inevitable
to hide the loss and keep the power:
“In God we trust!”
