Abundance means plenty, or a very large quantity of something. It is the innate tendency of nature and of life to manifest, grow, and become more. It is the tendency of the life force to produce more, and create more of everything.
To have an abundance of something is to have more than you need. It’s often used to describe positive qualities, such as “an abundance of love.” Abundance is the opposite of scarcity.
Do you ever have a word that keeps showing up?
A word that isn’t in your everyday vocabulary.
A word that isn’t one you use, that keeps appearing in conversations, in things you read and in things you hear?
That is ‘abundance’ for me. It has been spotlighted in the last few weeks and I am intrigued. I am curious about its symbolism and significance.
Abundance is not confined to money. It isn’t tangible. It’s a perception — a state of mind.
Abundance is the relationship we have with ourselves and the world.
Reflective questions to consider:
Am I satisfied with myself? Am I satisfied with my place in the world? If not, what changes can I make to reach that satisfaction? How can I leverage my community for help?
So I have been exploring what this word means to me and my life as it shows up. I have shared below 8 quotes I am musing on and created 8 questions I am exploring as a consequence for you to reflect on. Perhaps you may engage with them in your journal or as a vision board.
