The times that I have felt the richest aren't necessarily those times that I have had the most money. Often times it has been quite the contrary. So what is my secret to feeling rich, and yes I will add feeling rich has a pretty good feel to it.
I feel the richest when I am able to give and let go of what I am giving freely, knowing that the universe will support me and I will have whatever it is I need. I feel more because of the giving and not less because of what is gone. I have come to realize that I am not my stuff. I am a Being not a having.
When we are feeling poor, or poor in spirit, we often mistake our stuff for ourselves. The thought of giving or letting go of "our" possessions, which we translate as letting go of ourselves, leaves us with the feeling that we will be less than we are now if we give. We could have all the possessions in the world and still feel poor.
Being rich is feeling rich. The next time you have a chance to give, in whatever way is best for you, do so from that place of richness and feel just how good feeling rich can be.
