To those who are grateful, more is given. To those who are not, more is taken away. Having gifts taken away as a result of ingratitude helps you wake up to the importance of being grateful. Nothing has ever happened or can happen to you that is not a gift and a blessing, but it’s difficult to be thankful until you find the hidden benefit in what may seem at first to be a negative event. ― John F. Demartini
When you know that bad things aren’t so terrible and good things aren’t so terrific, you can be quietly grateful for whatever occurs. Balance is neither pessimism nor optimism. You cannot get rid of the positive and negative balance. If you try to put on a facade for the world about how positive and upbeat you are, there will be chaos in your private life or your personal health. ― John F. Demartini
The purpose of relationships is to help awaken you to the inherent balance existing within and around you, and to assist you in acknowledging your own magnificence and wholeness. Whatever we think about and thank about we bring about. ― John F. Demartini
When the voice and the vision on the inside is more profound, and more clear and loud than all opinions on the outside, you've begun to master your life. The moment you realize you already have everything you’re looking for, the universe gives it to you. ― John F. Demartini
