We have all been taught that you reap what you sow. Have you ever experienced that first hand? Did you ever do something really generous and/or unselfish for someone else and then have something wonderful yet unexplicable happen to you? If you have can you give an example?

I believe we do get repaid for the good we put out in the world. At work I try to retain a bright and cheerful attitude, even when I'm seething. Though you're suppose to do that anyway... I find that it is reflected back at me in my customers. When I am bright and cheerful towards them and remain respectful and honest throughout, they almost always respond possitively. I'm always being told how nice I am and that it's not my fault. And I am and it's not, but I get fussed at less by customers and am treated better by them (a lady brought me a homemade iced snickerdoodle the other day) than my more sour coworkers. It really does pay to be nice to people. Give to the universe and the universe gives more back.

Well, I think we do. I met my soul-mate very early, when I was sixteen. I am so happy that sometimes I'm wondering if I really deserve such a gift. So, I believe that I must have done something good before in my life. It's a gift second to none.

This is true and it happens on our daily lives. If we do things unselfishly and with great love, we'll reap good energy knowing that we did our best to love and share. In my work, I patiently help people in their problems. In return, I am happy with my work and sometimes, I get rewarded for it with recognition and financial incentives.

Nope. Been doing that up to when I was 20 when I realized that you don't get repaid. So I stopped trying.

If a person were truely unsefish and constantly does good, then there would be no need to ask this question. They would already know the answer.

Good is defined by evil, evil is defined by good. No one can escape this.

I've heard that "no good deed goes unpunished".
