Thank you to those of you who gave me your support in regards to my recent "Surprise", and my thinking things out in writing. I really appreciate your kind words and feedback. I have come to agree with you that I was not wrong to give Don a home to live in for the last four months. I did do the right thing. It was him that did the wrong thing, and there is nothing I can do about that. that is his choice and though it hurt me, it ultimately hurts him even more, even though I'm sure he doesn't have a clue of that.
We create our experiences in life, whether we believe it or not. We do this by what we think about and what we believe in. To do what Don did shows that he has a belief in poverty, a belief in stealing from people, even those that go out of their way to help you. To me, that's the worst kind of thief. Stealing from strangers is bad, but stealing from someone you know, someone who has given you help in your time of need.... wow, that's got to be the worst. So I see that he attracts what some might call "bad karma". According to the Law Of Attraction, he will attract to himself more experiences of poverty, and maybe people who will steal from him. People who will 'look him in the eye while stabbing him in the back', so to speak. I sure am glad that my 'karma' will be 180 degrees different from his.
I know that when we change our thoughts, it takes a bit of what might be called lap time for our experiences to change. Kind of like what happens in my life today is based on what I thought about or believed in yesterday, or even last week. So, Rev. Dale said that this happened to me because I attracted it with my belief in lack/poverty (or something like that, haha). That's cool. I think that opening my door and helping Don out was not something I really would have done in past years when I felt really poor. It is more the kind of thing a prosperous person would do that something a person stuck in lack would do. Maybe I'm wrong, or maybe someone else sees it in a different light, but this is the way I see it. Okay, I bought into his belief in poverty which might not be good, but I think I came from a place of prosperity to reach out and do what I could to help him. Also, in past years, I would have been devastated for some time over loosing the $100 and the fact that it will cost me money to change the locks on the trailer and the mailbox. Now, I was upset for about 2 days, tops. This was partly because of the loss of money, but also just as much because I have always thought of Don as a friend and even as family because I used to live common law with his brother. So, it was the loss of this long time relationship that hurt as much if not more than the loss of the money and keys. The Universe will find a way to replace the money so long as I trust in It to do so, and I do. After the initial shock, anyway, haha. So, I move on... and up. That is now history and I look to the future.

My friend has this idea, if you take from others, and that can be as simple as being overpaid $5 and keeping it...You will lose somewhere else in your life...
To me, the situation with Don, his taking from a friend means he will not trust others as he will believe all live like that...and that is a sad way to be mistrustful and decieving.
Where as you are a trusting soul and believe in good you will attract like minded people to your life...though it probably doesnt seem it at the moment (as you lost your money, keys and trust) you are the actual winner in this situation...
Stay strong...
Good attitude!
