First, when I send the card, I feel good just simply because I am reaching out to someone I care about. Second, I am sending out the heartfelt message without an expectation of receiving anything in return (a truly self-less act). Honestly, it was hard for me at first to realize that not everyone I sent a card to would at least call and thank me.
Third, the responses I did receive were so filled with sincere gratitude that this made me want to send out even more. Once I started to receive the phone calls from the people who had received their heartfelt cards, I realized how easy and simple it truly is to have a positive impact on another's life. This creates a snowball affect as they then share that positivity with myself and/or others. I know now that it is ok even if I don't hear from them at all, as I know in my heart that in most cases they are paying it forward.
Fourth, these cards have given me the ability to reconnect and re-establish relationships that had drifted apart and also create new relationships with great people. I find myself looking for other ways to make a connection and to send out positive messages to others. This can be anything from sending an email to a co-worker to compliment their hard work, or reaching out to a friend in need.
Whatever the method it doesn't matter, as long as the focus is on sending out those positive vibrations; the universe truly does pay you back in strange, wonderful and unexpected ways.
