A secret.

This is probably one of my favorite quotes. It is much more than words on a screen. It is a secret to life.


We all fall into the trap of thinking that we need more. That whatever new gadget, car, clothes someone else has, we need. It's not even close to the truth. Stuff is fairly easy to comeby. You can run up credit card debt, go without a healthy diet, work far more hours than necessary...yes. Yes you can.


But who wants to do that?


The secret is to be content. To realize that we are a spoiled nation here in the United States. To know that it doesn't matter one bit what the other person has. Who knows what they are giving up for the newest iPad?


Look around. Be still. The world hasn't ended.


You have enough.


You are MORE than enough.


Put those nasty thoughts out and rejoice in simplicity.


I am a work in progress. I still slip up from time to time, but the process of decluttering and realizing that I have far more than my needs is enough for me to enjoy the things and people in this world that I do have.


And that, my friends, is the secret!
