It has been my ritual to give sweets for my “house call” students. However, one day I forgotten to bring along the packet of sweets with me. The only thing I could thought of was to tell my student that I will be giving the sweet another day. At the back of my mind, I was praying for a small kiosk that sell sweets under some void deck.
The Universe answered my prayer in a special way. I changed my usual walking route and walked passed a void deck that happened to have snack dispenser machine. I was so elated over it. As I glared through the plastic panel of the dispenser machine, I saw some interesting candies and they cost $0.40 for one. The price is kind of high. I still wanted to buy it.
I took out $0.40 and slotted into dispenser machine – coin slot. To my surprise, the machine dropped 2 candies down to the dispenser pocket. I picked up the 2 candies happily and thanks the universe for the giving action.
The lesson I gained from this was give abundantly and receive abundantly. The Universe always give in its own way and it is depend on how open I am to receive them.
very nice… your story put a smile on my face. i don’t know if it’s so much about giving abundantly in a quantifiable way (the amount that is given) as much as giving abundantly in a qualitative (from the heart) way the brings abundance back to us.
may blessing abound for you.

Hi Jules,
To me, it giving abundantly from my heart.
Because I feel that if I think about it as quantifiable way, it lead me to have expectation from Universe.
Universe give in it own way…
for this incident… I have the choice between taking 2 sweets or 1 sweet.
Take 1 sweet because I only paid for it, but I chose to take 2.
It because I believe it is a gift
