The subtle secret,
To possessing all you want:
Blessing all you have.

Strange is our situation here on earth. Each of us comes for a short visit, not knowing why, yet sometimes seeming to divine purpose. From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: That we are here for the sake of humanity . . . For the countless unknown souls with whose fate we are connected by a bond of sympathy. Many times a day I realize how my own outer and inner life is built upon the labors of my fellow human beings, both living and dead, and how earnestly I must exert myself in order to give in return as much as I have received and am still receiving. ~ Albert Einstein

"The root of a bulb which shall produce a white lily is an unsightly thing; one might look upon it with disgust. But how foolish we should be to condemn the bulb for its appearance when we know the lily is within it. The root is perfect after its kind; it is a perfect but incomplete lily, and so we must learn to look upon every man and woman, no matter how unlovely in outward manifestation; they are perfect in their stage of being and they are becoming complete. Behold, it is all very good….It will make an immense difference with your faith and spirit whether you look upon civilization as a good thing which is becoming better or as a bad and evil thing which is decaying. One viewpoint gives you an advancing and expanding mind and the other gives you a descending and decreasing mind. One viewpoint will make you grow greater and the other will inevitably cause you to grow smaller. One will enable you to work for the eternal things; to do large works in a great way toward the completing of all that is incomplete and inharmonious; and the other will make you a mere patchwork reformer working without hope to save a few lost souls from what you will grow to consider a lost and doomed world. So you see it makes a difference to you, this matter of social viewpoint. “Alls right with the world. Nothing can possibly be wrong but my personal attitude, and I will see the facts of nature and all events, circumstances and conditions of society, politics, government, and industry from the highest viewpoint; it is all perfect, though incomplete. It is all the handiwork of God; behold, it is all very good." ~ James Allen
I am one of those people who often says, "It's all good." I've never really considered how much those words may be contributing to my experience of the benevolent Universe conspiring to shower us all with blessings.
