Thoughts on Spent

May you find inspiration in these thoughts and quotes on Spent from my large Daily Inspiration library of inspiring quotes and inspirational words.

For some of us, the world appears to provide
only a fixed quantity of each resource -
a limited amount of food, of money,
of love, of success, of appreciation.
For others, life is unlimited.
Their world expands with the generosity, compassion,
inventiveness, and service that they contribute.
In this world-view, money that is spent
or given away returns multiplied.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

is a poverty-stricken day; and a succession

are strengthened and empowered to help.

We can all have food, and jobs, and love, and happiness.
