The Law of Compensation states that every person will be compensated for their efforts and contribution to the Universe. Whether payment comes in the form of love, money, fame, or success is up to the powers that be. We have to believe that somewhere, somehow, the Universe takes care of us and our needs. This requires a great deal of trust in the greater power which can be hard given the lack of concrete evidence of the Universe rewarding good behavior.
Coming to terms with the unknown is a scary notion. The idea of letting go and letting the world take over is daunting but should be, and needs to be, applied to everyday life. At one point or another, we have all questioned whether or not the things that we say or do have an impact. Yet, there is a universal truth that no matter how little output you actually see being produced, it is the input that matters. The same way that energy cannot be created or destroyed only changes its form.
Within this logic, there are certain tenets. The first one is that if we put in more effort and power, we will get more in return. Throughout history, people have tried to fill their lives with materialistic things that gave them temporary fulfillment. This was most literally portrayed during the French Revolution and the decline of the monarchy, where wealth was measured by the size of your hair and your belly. More was more, and everything came in excess. We still see the remnants of this overconsumption in today's western society, yet the difference lies in the details. The interest now lies in having items of quantity rather than quality, leading to mass consumerism. More is more, and there are now thousands of unethical companies waiting to fulfill our gluttonous hands and empty hearts. After centuries of questionable values and materialistic priorities, one would think we would have recognized a pattern. The Law of Compensation shows us that when we get too caught up in the tries of everyday life, we forget to focus on what really matters. To do so, we need to have balance.
If one makes it their mission to put as much effort into life no matter the outcome, they will be truly happy. This applies to experiences, relationships, and the small moments that make living worthwhile. Since no one truly knows what follows our last breath, then we might as well make this life grand. Make life a champagne-popping, fluffy dress-wearing, cake-eating party that doesn't stop until we walk our last step or take our final breath.
