Everything that comes your way presents an opportunity to learn and evolve, which further expands your capacity to receive.
Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.
Lao Tzu
When a desire surfaces, examine it objectively and learn what you can from it. If a desire leads to a greater appreciation of what you do have or to a deeper understanding of yourself, it will have served its purpose.
Until you make peace with who you are, you’ll never be content with what you have.
Doris Mortman
If you are not satisfied with what you have, attaining all that you want will still leave you unsatisfied.
Want is a growing giant whom the coat of Have was never large enough to cover.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The emptier you feel, the more you desire. The more you desire, the more you accumulate. The more you accumulate, the more complicated your life. The more complicated your life, the more stress you experience.
If your desires be endless, your cares and fears will be so, too.
Thomas Fuller
