True abundance has nothing to do with what I am having, but everything to do with what I am being.
Interpretation
True abundance is a reflection of your inner state rather than your material possessions.
The quote by Neale Donald Walsch emphasizes that real abundance stems from one's mindset and personal growth rather than external wealth or possessions. It inspires a shift in focus from accumulating material goods to nurturing a rich inner life, suggesting that fulfillment and joy come from being authentic and true to oneself.

Giving up is not the answer. Neither is giving in. Stand your ground. There is a way of doing that without having to be combative.

Simply and quietly claiming your right to be You is the way.
True meditation can never be done with the mind. Very often we make a mistake when we say that we are meditating in the mind and utilising the mind. Real meditation is done in the psychic being and in the soul. It goes hand in hand with flaming aspiration, the burning flame that wants to climb up to the Highest.
The people with very hard problems are understood by God. He knows what wretched machines they are trying to drive. Some day he will fling them away and give those people new ones; then they may astonish everyone, for they learned their driving in a hard school.

He who is virtuous is wise; and he who is wise is good; and he who is good is happy.
