For thou shalt find it after many days

Ok, so I looked it up (see previous post), it's from Ecclesiastes 11:1-- "Cast thy bread upon the waters, for thou shalt find it after many days." I think I got the idea that it had the spiritual meaning I gave below, from my mom.

Answers.com says: "This saying calls on people to believe that their good deeds will ultimately benefit them." I think that is more or less in line with what I said in my earlier post.

The New Revised Standard Version says: "Send out your bread upon the waters, for after many days you will get it back."
