"Prosperity comes from the Latin root which literally translates: "according to hope" or "to go forward hopefully." Thus it is not so much a condition in life as it is an attitude toward life. The truly prosperous person is what psychologist Rollo May calls "the fully functioning person.""
~ Eric Butterworth, 20th Century Spiritual Teacher from Spiritual Economics
Prosperity.
What a beautiful word. As Butterworth shares, the literal meaning points to an attitude of hope.
Good news: as we “go forward hopefully” with a “prosperous” attitude in all things, we’ll be rewarded with all the external (and internal!!) fruits of true prosperity.
Let’s go forward hopefully!
