When you give positive you get positive and when you get positive you give positive.

The process of remembering that the same is true with negativism is very important as we need to pay attention – close attention to what we say and do and how we do them!

Great post – one of those – I have to look inside of myself and make a few adjustment posts!

Your quote is from Charles Reade (1814-1884).
There is probably no such person as Frank Outlaw (though he may be a character – I haven’t read any Reade :-).
Here in Germany it gets credited to the Talmud all the time, but Jewish authorities on the Web say this is not true.

This one’s for New Age Bitch~

I think that’s true of just about everything. It’s like Barbara Grizutti Harrison said, “There are no original ideas. Just original people.”

I’m glad both Tim’s site and yours exist so people from different walks of life have the opportunity to incorporate these insights into their every-day-choices! I know it helps me to see different perceptions of the same concepts.

@ Twill – Firstly let me apologize for not replying to your comment before, I simply missed it.

Thanks a lot for going to the trouble that you did because your response was well thought out and pushes me to think about what I wrote. I’m always grateful for that.

I’m sorry that me saying ‘will’ is neutral makes you lose judgment in me, but I do stand by it.

I meant neutral in terms of the effect it has on our psyche and body language, not in literal terms. When people make flat statements of intent, it has little effect on their physiology in my experience, and that is what I was referring to in this post.

I think on the whole though we are in agreement on more than we disagree on and you explained your points brilliantly! Thanks.

@ NAB – We are indeed twins, I promised not to tell you, but the cats well and truely out of that particular bag now.
