Five Inspirational Quotes From St Augustine

Hi Folks!

This is my first post on this amazing forum. I am a spiritual wanderer and wonderer and I will be posting about spirituality, faith, love, life, health and happiness!

St Augustine, also known as Augustine of Hippo, was an early Christian thinker whose incredible insights are as important today as they ever were. Here are five quotes (generated on Brainyquotes):

I meditate and pray everyday, but I also feel that hard work, for a good cause, can be the most powerful form of prayer.

Jealousy affects every aspect of us. It's not just romantic jealousy, but all kinds of jealousy can chew us up and stop us from appreciating what we have. This is a powerful call to appreciate what we have and the people we share our life with.

Sometimes it feels like we aren't getting anywhere. That we try and improve but are always going to be stuck. This is not and will never be the case - it just takes a lot of patience and time to be the person you want to be.

Not only can travel teach you about other cultures, it can teach you so much about where you come from and ultimately yourself. I wish all humans had the ability to travel. Maybe if we keep steeming on!

I truly believe that love is something that we can foster within ourselves: that we can learn to love and generating that love within ourselves is how we make ourselves beautiful. (On the inside! This isn't a makeup tutorial!)

Thanks so much if you have made it this far! Hopefully I gave you something to think about! Have a blessed day!
