spiritual love-is giving
The only way to experience love is to give it.
spiritual adventure eye
If you are curious as to what your future may hold, you can look into a mirror. What is reflecting back? Does a sparkle in your eyes indicate excitement about new adventures and opportunities? Does a smile on your lips portray an inner happiness and abundant goodwill towards others?
spiritual commitment giving
The commitment of giving your best at all times, in all circumstances and under all conditions, can enable you to find value in, and lend value to, every experience.
spiritual optimistic government
If governments encourage people to become more spiritual there will be a reduction in healthcare costs.
spiritual money giving
If we have not developed a reservoir of spiritual wealth, no amount of money is likely to make us happy. Spiritual wealth provides faith. It gives us love. It brings and expands wisdom. Spiritual wealth leads to happiness because it guides us into useful or loving relationships.
spiritual powerful ideas
Be aware of the words that go into your mind, both conscious and unconscious, because words and ideas can be great tools for your mind to use in coming to appropriate decisions. Remember that a statement spoken in spiritual consciousness can contain great spiritual power. Speaking powerful words of love changes things and outer circumstances as well as consciousness itself.
spiritual perspective important
From the standpoint of our spiritual development, it might be important for us to realize that we came from an unknown somewhere; we brought with us an attained state of consciousness; and while we are here, we are expanding that consciousness. From some perspectives, it may seem that we are making giant strides, but from the greater overview, our quantity of spiritual knowledge is smaller than Ptolemy's knowledge of astronomy!
spiritual optimistic focus
I focus on spiritual wealth now, and I'm busier, more enthusiastic, and more joyful than I have ever been.
giving joy spiritual-happiness
To get joy, we must give it and to keep joy, we must scatter it.
spiritual reality opposites
Faith does not imply a closed, but an open mind. Quite the opposite of blindness, faith appreciates the vast spiritual realities that materialists overlook by getting trapped in the purely physical.
spiritual optimistic people
...Making people get over the concept that they've got the total proof. To get them to feel, 'Gee, I want to learn more. I want to hear anybody who can tell me something in addition to ways I already know about God or my spiritual principles.
happiness spiritual giving
Happiness comes from spiritual wealth, not material wealth... Happiness comes from giving, not getting. If we try hard to bring happiness to others, we cannot stop it from coming to us also. To get joy, we must give it, and to keep joy, we must scatter it. .
appreciate attracting bring city diverse focus large tech tourism value
The single-minded focus has been on attracting tech visitors. By and large the city does not appreciate the value that its diverse neighborhoods can bring to its tourism promotion.
call enthusiasm
I wouldn't call it radical; I would call it enthusiasm for progress.
