Always remember that you reap what you sow and karma always comes back around. That is the subject for today’s quotes and yesterday’s Daily Reflection.

“Life is an echo. What you send out, comes back. What you sow, you reap. What you give, you get. What you see in others, exists in you.” (Zig Ziglar)

“If you want kindness, be kind. If you want friends, be friendly. If you want help, be helpful. If you want love, be loving. If you want respect, respect yourself. You will most often get more of the things that matter in life by giving them first than you ever will by trying desperately to get them or asking for them.” (Zero Dean)

“Everything you do, everything you say, every choice you make, sooner or later comes back around.” (Rich Simmonds)

“Remember, what you do now will come back to you in the future. Life has a funny way of making yo deal with what you make others go through.” (Unknown)

Peace, love, light, and joy,

How often in life we look outside of ourselves to fill any emptiness we feel within was the subject of yesterday’s article and is the basis for today’s quotes.

“Instead of filling the void in your heart with outside substances, material possessions or the acceptance of others, learn to fill it with rituals of self love.” (Erin Chatters)

“Happiness is your inherent nature. In the hustle and bustle of life, you have forgotten a part of yourself, and looking for it outside. Fill this void with happiness that is sustainable, not transitory, that illuminates your life and that of others, that is life giving and so natural.” (Sanchita Pandey)

“If I was lonely, if I was afraid of being alone, then why abandon myself? Why run to someone else looking to give myself the thing that only I could give? I wanted to escape myself because I felt empty, and the emptiness frightened me. But obviously, I was empty because I was always running out, running away. The only way to fill the emptiness was to remain, to take up residence in myself.” (Norah Vincent)

“We see ourselves as broken, and then set out on a long and frustrating journey, to fill our emptiness. But it is not fixing that we require. It is awakening…” (Alan Cohen)

Today’s quotes continue to stress the importance of having a grateful heart and a life of gratitude…

“Gratitude is a description of a successful mode of living. The thankful heart opens our eyes to a multitude of blessings that continually surround us.” (James E. Faust)

“Gratitude turns what we have into enough.” (Aesop)

“The unthankful heart discovers no mercies; but the thankful heart will find, in every hour, some heavenly blessings.” (Henry Ward Beecher)

“If you fail to carry around with you a heart of gratitude for the love you’ve been so freely given, it is easy for you not to love others as you should.” (Paul David Tripp)

“Even in the most peaceful surroundings, the angry heart finds quarrel. Even in the most quarrelsome surroundings, the grateful heart finds peace.” (Doe Zantamata)

Peace, love, light, and joy,
