A Course in Miracles<\/a> suggests helpfully, give to have, teach to learn. Behind those simple instructions is the wisdom teaching that, in this experience, it is the “being-ness” which sparks the circumstances desired.<\/p>\n\n\n\nIn other words, someone who has would naturally want to give, therefore, by giving you are expressing the state of having, sparking the circumstances for “having” to be part of your experience.
