Karma!!!
To disable ads, please log-in.
Once upon a time there was a broke kayaker trying to make his way in the world and I helped him rehab an injury, essentially for free.
Fast forward to 7 years later, this young man is a world renowned paddler, photographer (I'm talking National Geographic caliber, seriously not exaggerating), and adventurer. Turns out he's back in town and want's me to help him with more injury prevention work for an upcoming "out in the middle of no-where" paddling epic. In exchange, he's going to do photos and video for my Gorge Bike Fitter website!!!!!!
I'm soooooo excited. I couldn't ask for a better photographer/videographer and in all honesty, I never, ever, expected anything back from the treatment and guidance I gave him years ago. I didn't really even expect him to remember who I am.
Yay karma is working in my favor right now!!!!!Living life like there's no tomorrow.

You are a giver-back to the universe, lady, by nature. I'm glad it's circled around--I'm sure not for the first OR the last time.
"My predominant feeling is one of gratitude. I have loved and been loved;I have been given much and I have given something in return...Above all, I have been a sentient being, a thinking animal, on this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and an adventure." O. Sacks

That is great, Wahine. Put something out into the universe and it always circles back, comforting to kind and generous people.
