About This Quote
The living self has one purpose only: to come into its own fullness of being. When you live a life of your true self, you don’t have a lot of material possessions. You don’t have a lot of money. But, what you do have is the greatest treasure, the greatest benefit that you have access to, and that is being yourself.
