There is nothing you lack – our “wants” far outweigh our “needs” and our appetite for more is never satiated!

There is Nothing You Lack

As seasons change, our lives do too…

Some for the better, some for the worse.

Many times we strive to go forward,

But winds of time blow us back in reverse.

No matter how far off course the road may lead,

There is always a chance to make it back.

Keep on striving, when you fall get right back up,

In time you’ll see, there is nothing you lack.

There is nothing you lack – That’s an odd thing to say, especially while living in a world where the jar always seems to be half empty.  Bigger, better, faster, brighter…the list goes on and on.  Our “wants” far outweigh our “needs” and our appetite for more is never satiated.

“When you realize that what you have is indeed enough…there is nothing you lack.”

When the seasons of life lead you to the point of seeing the proverbial jar as half full and you see no need to fill it anymore…that is when you’ve learned the value of appreciating what you have and being content with it.  More is not necessarily better.  Remember, the more you have, the more you have to take care of.  In fact, I’ve learned that less is more…

“The important thing is not the quantity, but the quality of what you have that makes all the difference.

I’ve lived “out of a suitcase” for a good part of the past two years.  During that time, I’ve certainly learned what is essential for my daily living and what is dispensable.  I’ve realized that, in most cases, having more than what I require can actually be more of a hindrance that a help.  My jar is not nearly as full as it used to be, but I have all that I need…there is nothing I lack.

How about you?  Do you have more than you truly need?  Do you find yourself worrying about your possessions more than those things that really matter in life?  These are questions that you might consider…do you have all you truly need or is there something you lack?

Peace and love,

On Prosperity

On Prosperity

on prosperityA Quote to Carry You

August 11, 2014

“If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant: if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome.”  Josh Billings

Prosperity doesn’t just happen out of the blue.  Prosperity is something that is grown over time. Like the seasons in nature, I believe that some degree of exertion has to be put forth in order for the fullness of pleasure in life’s most treasured possessions can be realized.  The fierceness of winter melts into the delicateness of springtime.  The brutal heat of summer withers along the crisp trails of autumn.  We long for times of abundant prosperity when we’ve suffered far too long with far too little.  We bask in the comfortable richness offered to us by the fruits of our labor; never wanting to have to face leaner times again.  What we may not realize is that prosperity, like the seasons is not necessarily found in our possessions, but rather, it is in the effort and determination it took to acquire them.

May your season of prosperity come and be enjoyed to the full.

Peace and love,

Felecia
