Like causes always produce like effects. What does that mean?

It means there is no such thing as chance. There is a cause for every effect; an effect for every cause. Everything happens according to Laws of the Universe.

It means that whatever you send out into the universe comes back. What goes around, comes around. Like causes produce like effects.

Have you ever noticed that when you are angry, you attract more things to get angry about? You are sending out angry vibrations and only angry vibrations can return.

Think about a time when someone asked you to help them do something. You didn't have time, you didn't want to, you knew you wouldn't have any fun, but you said yes. You went with the prior knowledge of all of the above. You sent out vibrations of all of the above. You did not have a good time.

Think of another time someone asked you to do something. You said yes immediately, you wanted to, you knew you would have fun. All of what you knew happened. It was no coincidence. You received what you sent out.

You send out vibrations. Your vibrations come back.

How does knowing this help you?

Well, how about the next time someone asks for your help, as in the first scenario, you either say no, or you change your mind about what you think will happen? How does that help? Well, when you look for the good in things, you usually find them!

And how about in the second scenario you really get into it and find even more good things that you know will happen? Your joy spreads. Your good vibrations come back.

Have you ever been with someone who was in a bad mood? What kind of vibrations were they sending? Bad mood vibrations, right? And what did you find yourself sending back to them? More bad vibrations, right, and sometimes you don't really mean to. Then, what do you find coming back to you? Yep, what goes around, comes around. :)

Why not try this? Surround yourself with White Light. Pure White Light. (To find more about the White Light, go here: http://www.tameyourbrain.com/goodthoughts.htm and scroll about half way down.) Feel the protection this White Light gives you. It stops the negative vibrations from affecting you, and even more importantly, it sends out good vibrations!

Remember, if you squeeze an orange you WILL get orange juice. If someone *squeezed* you, what would they get? What is in you that you are sending out? Anger, resentment, hatred? Or love, happiness, forgiveness, joy?
