19.Law of Giving
The law of reciprocity is one of the most
powerful of all the laws that run human
relationships.
When you genuinely help others, they will do
anything to genuinely help you. But before
someone will lend you a hand, you must touch
their heart.
Give away that which you most wish to receive.
If you want more support, give more support,
If you want more appreciation, give away more
appreciation. You want more respect, need to
be giving respect first.

Dealing with Mother In Law

We have two standards, one for our mother and one for our mother

in-law. If you have the same standard for your mother-in-law as you
have for your mother then the problem will be gone
The second tip is, just don't argue with her. Win her over with love.
Whatever she may say, if you say, 'Yes', what will happen to you?
Arguments and misunderstandings happen when both sides cooperate
to fight. If the one side does not cooperate to fight, there will be no
arguments.
If your mother in law says, 'It is very hot', you say, 'Yes mother-inlaw, it is.

Flow with her for some time and then you will see that you can win her
over.
So,
win
her
over
with
love
and
agreement.
See, when you agree, how can someone fight with you. Become soft
from inside. This is the skill.

This is the true joy in life; to be used for a purpose
recognized by yourself as a mighty oneI am of the
opinion that my life belongs to the whole community
and as long as I live, it is my privilege to do for it
whatever I can. I want to be thoroughly used up when
I die, for the harder I work, the more I live. I rejoice
in life for its own sake. Life is not brief candle to me,
it is a sort of splendid tourch which I have got hold
for the moment and I want to make it burn as brightly
as possible before handling it to future generations.
