Everything Exists

ByMatthew

You say I started out with practically nothing, but that isn’t correct. We all start with all there is, it’s how we use it that makes things possible. – Henry Ford

I love the reminder this quote offers.

In considering this idea, remember that energy – which is what everything is – cannot be created or destroyed, only changed into different forms.

So everything we need exists, possibly in a form we wouldn’t prefer.

We must work to create what we want by transforming that which is into that which we desire.

Just as there is no desire you can authentically hold that you can’t actually create, everything you need exists (in some form or another).
