“Who gets the credit?”
Do you see what a human concept this is?
Only a mind that sees itself as lacking would concern itself with
recognition and attention. That is the
ego speaking, poor thing. Ego sees not
that it is a player in the role of human-being.
Its role is quite important, actually.
It is in awakening to the fact that you are far more than ego and then
overcoming egoic behaviors that you truly fulfill your purpose in this earthly
existence. You come to remember that
there has only ever been one Consciousness whose essence is goodness and
love. With that understanding, recognition
matters not. It is like looking in the
mirror to confirm that you exist. You
know this already. Why would you need credit
for doing something good? You are
goodness and love already. Yes, praise is appreciated. It is a way of sharing love, but it need not come at the expense of others. You can
simply smile and bathe in the goodness and love you have brought to the surface
by being your highest Self. That is all
the recognition the soul desires.
