Every smile, my friend....every smile...
At times you may not think that what you are doing has an effect.Here's a nice concise example to illustrate why it's important to keep doing it anyway, and why every little bit that we do to better the world is important.
[Excerpt from a book entitled "A Happy Pocket Full of Money"]
"Imagine now that there are two people in a room. They are both gloomy and sad. Their energy level is low. One tells a joke, and the other one laughs. The one telling a joke causes the one who starts to laugh to raise his or her energy level and become vibrant, laugh. This makes the one telling a joke laugh because there is new joy in the air and they are sharing a joke. Person A caused a change in Person B, and it went back to cause a change in A. Now have you noticed how you feel great after you tell jokes to many people and they laugh; how it feels greater than telling to one person only? And those people take your joke and they tell it on and on to other friends and friends of friends, and it spreads.
Well, the universe is a whole lot more complicated than that. A shift on one part of that massive field of energy ripples on and causes shifts in the parts next to it and they cause shifts in the parts next to them and that ripple goes on forever! Can you imagine that! Your smile changes the composition of the entire universe! Scientifically! Your anger does the same.
Anything you do, any thought you have, ripples on forever and changes the composition of the whole universe, however small that change is.
[And] Because you are part of that universe, that ripple comes back to you and gives you back a dose of similar essence.
That is how, scientifically, the law of cause and effect works, and works multiplicatively. This happens on an energy level and on a spirit level. In both cases, the betterment of one individual in the system causes a betterment of the whole system, and betterment in the whole system causes betterment in the individual. The reverse is also true."
