ABUNDANCE
...let
us remember the large numbers of citizens who, day
in and day out, through acts of volunteerism large
and small, bring hope to so many of the world's disadvantaged.
Let us ensure that this wonderful resource, available
in abundance to every nation, is recognized and supported
as it works towards a more prosperous and peaceful
world.
-- Kofi
Annan
"We
need to meditate on what is peaceful. Once we have
'filled up' in this way, we once again have an abundance
of love to send out into the world."
~ Jean

Many people think that hunger is unavoidable in any
society, even a society that is blessed with great
abundance. That is not true. The European community
does not have widespread hunger. America, which leads
the world in so many ways, can end childhood hunger
within its borders.
-- Pierce
Brosnan
Then
all that has divided us will merge
And then compassion will be wedded to power
And then softness will come to a world that is harsh and
unkind
And then both men and women will be gentle
And then both women and men will be strong
And then no person will be subject to another's will
And then all will be rich and free and varied
And then the greed of some will give way to the needs of
many
And then all will share equally in the earth's abundance
And then all will care for the sick and the weak and the
old
And then all will nourish the young
And then all will cherish life's creatures
And then all will live in harmony with each other and with
the earth
And everywhere will be called Eden, once again.
-- Judy Chicago
The
universe operates through dynamic exchange… giving
and receiving are different aspects of the flow of
energy in the universe, and in our willingness to
give that which we seek, we keep the abundance of
the universe circulating in our lives.

Chopra

"People
with a scarcity mentality tend to see everything in
terms of win-lose. There is only so much; and if someone
else has it, that means there will be less for me. The
more principle-centered we become, the more we develop
an abundance mentality, the more we are genuinely happy
for the successes, well-being, achievements, recognition,
and good fortune of other people. We believe their success
adds to...rather than detracts from...our lives.” -
Stephen R. Covey

We
plant seeds that will flower as results in our lives,
so best to remove the weeds of anger, avarice, envy
and doubt, that peace and abundance may manifest for
all.
-- Dorothy
Day
Doing
what you love is the cornerstone of having abundance in
your life.
-- Wayne Dyer
Abundance
is not something we acquire. It is something we tune into.
-- Wayne Dyer
Our
affluent society contains those of talent and insight who
are driven to prefer poverty,
to choose it, rather than submit to the desolation of an
empty abundance.
-- Michael Harrington
In
the past our glorious visions of the future - heaven,
paradise, nirvana - were thought to happen after death.
The newer thought is that we do not have to die to get
there. We are not speaking here of life after death
in some mythical heaven, but life more abundant in real
time in history. We are speaking of the next stage of
our social evolution.
-- Barbara
Marx Hubbard
Life
in abundance comes only through great love.
-- Elbert Hubbard
Our
great country is rich and abundant in so many ways.
It is totally unacceptable to me that we have children and
families going hungry!
-- Diane Ladd
"In
the midst of living life; in the midst of chaos; in
the midst of endless lists of to-do's and people to
take care of and little pieces of you going outward,
I challenge you to shift your subconscious, to shift
your attitude, and find three things to feel grateful
for. Look around you with your senses. What three
small things can you feel grateful for? Think about
it and breathe it in and say: 'I am grateful. I am
grateful. I am grateful for all the abundance around
me and in me.' What do you picture when you say these
words? Imagine it as if it is true. I am grateful
for all the abundance around me and in me."

Riches
are not from abundance of worldly goods, but from a contented
mind.

When
you are grateful fear disappears and abundance appears

The
test of our progress is not whether we add more to
the abundance of those who have enough; it is whether
we provide enough for those who have too little."
-- Franklin
Delano Roosevelt
“Talent
is always conscious of its own abundance, and does not object
to sharing.”
~ Alexander Solzehnitsyn
What
is called genius is the abundance of life and health.

David Thoreau
“Acknowledging
the good that you already have in your life is the foundation
for all abundance.” — Eckhart Tolle
Let's
share our abundance and make our country stronger. We can
encourage programs that collect and distribute excess prepared
food to local organizations that are helping the hungry
in our own communities. We can also support programs that
supply commodities to food banks. It's all part of committing
our country's wealth and resources to end childhood hunger.
-- John Travolta
